    Doesn't mess up formatting like LibreOffice does.

    It's free and open source software. Compatible with most Microsoft Office documents. Doesn't track you at all.

    I like Cryptpad as an alternative to M365, where it allows you to self-host your own office suite, which looks like an instance of OnlyOffice hosted in the "cloud" while respecting E2EE and is open source. If you'd rather use the cloud than self-host you can use a public instance or a paid plan for hosting and storage.
