Off by default, but never fully gone.
Who is surprised?

As a small business, I need MS office & 2 other pieces of software that have no Linux versions. Rightly pissed off that I'll have to upgrade my main machines to Win 11 by Oct 25.
MS office PWA is nearly indentical to the desktop apps these days. I switched to linux where I use outlook and excel via pwa for work, and it's been fine. My M$ centered workplace is actually setting up an option to use linux on their laptops soon, too. I can't wait for that.
The web app is nowhere near as powerful as the desktop app. I need the desktop app for about 25% of my work.
Which one specifically? Outlook is identical, and excel is nearly the same. Excel is just missing a couple developer mode options like adding a checkbox to a cell, which were basically just gimmicky imo anyways.
Excel web app can't do pivot tables and a number of other things that the desktop version can do. Been a while since I looked though.
I'm guessing those pieces of software won't run in wine? Its pretty good these days.
I've never tried. Does it handle random applications or would they need to be on a list?
it will attempt anything. just search around for anyone else whose tried the app. odds are pretty good.
Wine is pretty good for most things I've tried, except new Office (will run the old versions OK). Try O365, if Libre Office won't cut it. You can try the installer in Wine without hurting anything. For your other stuff,I keep a Windows 8 vm around off network to run some ancient radio programming software, so maybe that is an option.
Have you looked into OnlyOffice. Nice office suite that saves in MS file extensions. Use it all the tjme
what are they? you could search for/ask around in linux forums if wine works well :]
Does M365 not run on Linux?
