Hi everyone! 👋 We still see people on the fediverse recommending OpenOffice, despite it having year-old unfixed security issues: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_OpenOffice#Security – So if you see someone recommending it, please inform them about the risks – but also that there are actively maintained successor projects (like LibreOffice). #foss #OpenSource
Lee-bruh is definitely the way to go since it fluidly connects to the first syllable of “office”. If you do “lib-ray” or “lee-bray”, you’re forcing a ton of unnecessary annunciation on yourself.
I don’t even know if I pronounce it right. Is it like libré or is it more like a lobster-tiger hybrid? Or a Lemur-cobra.hybtid?
Also, if they’re watching, the themes still make the UI all funky unless it’s on the default—at least for Calc, anyway.
I say leeb-ruh, like it’s a Spanish loanword.

Agreed, but sounds too much like “Libra Office” ♎️⚖️
bruh
At risk of going of topic, is this a Millennial meme?
Like, I really hope younger folks have seen this.
Ah, not it’s again!
I’ve always pronounced it lib-ray
Libre will really only ever be a French word to me so that’s how I always thought it would be pronounced. With an Americanish R sound.
Leeb-roffice
librɑɔfəs for you IPA enjoyers
Think “Zebra” (NA English) but with an ‘L’.
