Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

You can still acquire non-365 licenses that also come bullshit-free with no AI.

Once those are no longer available, I’m sure I’ll be fully over on Linux/LibreOffice by that time.

Ive been on LibreOffice. No complaints from professors about it so, I'm assuming no one can actually tell I'm using LibreOffice.

non zero chance at least some of them are, too

I'm assuming no one can actually tell I'm using LibreOffice.

Trace formatting issues aside, it will show up in other subtle ways such as smaller *.docx files and cleaner doc-to-PDF conversions.

I actually had a better time with LibreOffice in school.

There were a number of times professors submitted word docs with instructions in tables that didn't render properly in Word but rendered fine in Libreoffice Writer.

I've also had classes that used csv spreadsheets with a non-comma delimiter. It was very easy to switch the delimiter in Calc. But the professor had to resubmit a xlsx for everyone using excel.
