Microsoft Office has been replaced by "Microsoft 365 Copilot App" 🙄 (not a joke, see office.com)

Fortunately there are many good alternatives on the Fediverse:

➡️ @libreoffice - Free open source office suite, can be used entirely offline
➡️ @CollaboraOffice - Online fork of LibreOffice, upstream contributor
➡️ @nextcloudNextcloud 📱☁️💻 - FOSS personal cloud including collaborative office tools
➡️ @CryptPad - FOSS online office suite with maximum privacy

@FediFollows @jbz #Microsoft Office still exists -- it's only their subscription service that is being renamed. You can buy "Office Home 2024" for $150.

Screenshot of Microsoft 365/Office pricing comparison. Rightmost column is "Office Home 2024, One-time purchase for PC or Mac," for $149.99.
