LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think.

I started the name calling by saying "tech brained" so I apologize and I'll ease off on that.
With that said, I have to strongly disagree with you. I use MS Office, LibreOffice, and Google Docs regularly, and IMO the ribbon was a huge improvement for word processors and spreadsheets over traditional drop-down menus. Drop-Down menus have their place but for document editing they are not ideal.
You are going to die on that hill. You sir have some serious screws loose and I will never take anything you say seriously again.
Oh no, some crank who can't understand that other people have preferences won't take me seriously. This is a major loss. I am so owned. This definitely isn't emblematic of the problem with the OSS community.
You also act like an idiot. Now you are a victim as well. The big bad OSS community!? Do you even listen to the shit that is pouring out of your mouth.
