From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've never seen any issues with it. People here used MS Office 2007 until like 2019. It should be fine as long as it supports docx and the document doesn't have complicated scripts (which nobody uses here so can't tell about them)
That's is a bad idea as the old Office doesn't receive security patches
Well this is true but again if you use MS apps, you probably should just use Windows
You'll get no argument from me.
It's always nice to see people that don't want to argue
Do people even still target ancient versions?
