My favourite feature is the insanely counter-intuitive indenting and bullet points.

If you don't use \LaTeX, that's on you.
I honestly have more things against excel than word... or maybe im just mad about how ribbon was stupidly implemented in excel
I expected Lemmy to be less repost-obsessed than Reddit yet here we are.
This why LibreOffice called out Microsoft for using "complex" file formats to lock in Office users
You using complex file formats for vendor lock in
Me using complex file formats because my code base is shite.
We are not the same
Want to edit the header just on page 6? Or feel like being sexy and having a single page in landscape or a different size?
Easy! Just make a bunch of separate documents, export them as PDFs, and merge them in Adobe Acrobat.
I agree lots of things about word sucks. But FYI single page landscape is achieved by using two section breaks. It's not ideal, but its somewhat understandable given how styles are prioritized. I've tried others that work well, but they also suffer on things that word does well that we take for granted.
The way it should be handled is to just let me rotate a single fucking page. It's 2025 and there is zero excuse for that bullshit.
Like I said, I agree it sucks. I've had the exact same thought many times.
Never understood the attraction. It sucks.
The real miracle isn’t Word’s features, it’s how it’s still the default after decades of collective pain.

I'm old enough to remember Microsoft Works.
I miss the simplicity of those days...
I member Corel Word-perfect...
I dunno, having two different word processors was kind of confusing
Three. Wordpad also existed.
Apple‘s office suite is the closest thing to it we have today I think.
Used Microsoft Works in the early 2000's. Only discontinued in 2009 apparently.

Word is the proof that God exists and he's still real fuckin' pissy about that apple.
