Yes, the title is stranegly worded, but I did want to share a productive thread happening on the Accessibility email list for LibreOffice.
You can read the thread at https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/accessibility/msg01038.html

Is LibreOffice the dominant Microsoft suite competitor? I used to use OpenOffice, but it was kind of bad.
It's the dominant open source competitor. I think Google's office suite would be their largest overall.
@rkw_social @MacroCyclo I think so as well, yes. LibreOffice is the most maintained FOS solution to Microsoft Word. Microsoft has a billion times better accessibility support, but then again, big tech is always lightyears ahead of accessibility support, sadly! Still, I hope that tide is shifting.
it is and has great compatibility with office formats, such as password protected excel spreadsheets.
Maybe give the OnlyOffice Desktop Editors a spin, too. Don’t get me wrong, LibreOffice is great and all, but OnlyOffice looks and feels a lot more familiar to Word/Excel/PowerPoint users. I’ve found that its handling of document formatting is better than LibreOffice’s.
There’s a server component, cloud plans available, yadda yadda, but you really only need the desktop editors. https://www.onlyoffice.com/download-desktop.aspx
