Euro-Office and OnlyOffice don't "only support" OOXML. Where did you get that idea?
And not every software developed in Russia is "riddled with Russian spyware." The code is open so where do you suppose all this supposed spyware is hiding? Or is that just fear-mongering?
I'd love for LibreOffice to do a serious modernization to be a viable alternative. But for most users, it feels like a downgrade whether or not it is technically better under the hood. I use OnlyOffice these days even though it has a lot more bugs because the UX is just that much better in spite of it.
From the fact ODF "support" is an awkward import/export function. It's not a first class format.
On their live service. They don't publish the spyware with the code they choose to open, obviously. 😃
