libreoffice has been updated to 6.1.0 (link in the first message of the thread).
It's a x64, light version with only 3 dictionaries installed by default (English, French, Spanish). The interface is in English.
Unlike the previous versions, the installer is now totally silent, with a progress bar. You can deploy this version in your firm, Libreoffice is free.

On Windows, I use Office 2016 which can open odt and other Libreoffice/Openoffice formats. On linux I use LibreOffice.

Does the Libreoffice installation program allow you to install only those features you need? I'm asking with Office 2016 all I use is Word and Excel, so that's all I install. The rest is bloat, I have no use for it. It's pretty bad having to install garbage you don't need and will never use.

If all I use is Word and Excel, the other stuff remains unwanted bloat. I can't understand why these guys force users to install bloat that will never be used and does nothing more than take up hard drive space. Oh well -- I'll still use MS Office until the day that getting a pirated copy is impossible (yeah, right)  :)

By "completely silent" you mean it doesn't ask you what you prefer or where to put the files? It just goes in there and forcibly installs every piece of unwanted garbage there is. This despite that (in my case) all I use and want are the equivalents of Word and Excel. Silent installations are a disguised way to install all kinds of unwanted bloat.

As we all know, LibreOffice is freeware and doesn't require cracks or replacement files. All you did was silence the installer?
