Why not try out onlyoffice? The interface is almost exactly the same, and you get free cloud storage

Because they're russian and offering free cloud storage of your business documents

Word, Excel, and PowerPoint are free to use with the web interface.

key resellers have office 2021 pro plus (the non subscription one) for $30.00ish (earlier versions are even cheaper) and that is what I recommend if you absolutely have to get office.

Are you able to run it through wine?

This really depends on what she’s using it for. If she’s going to use it for anything business related, she needs a legal copy. That includes her sitting down to write the next great American novel or Sookie Stackhouse series. If she’s just needs to open recipes someone else sends her, not a problem at all.

How are people installing it on Linux these days? Arch specifically.

I've been using it in a windows VM. Unfortunately for my work, I need the formatting of Excel and Word to be legit that I can't for the life of me seem to replicate in Only or Libre. That and PDF rendering always gets a little wonky somehow.
