Alternative Software
I love AlternativeTo and open source software, but I don't believe in only open source. If I don't believe in only open source, why the name? While I prefer open source software, not every piece of software can be or should be open source. People need options. That's why I love AlternativeTo - it's all about giving people options! A little about me: In my free time, I like to find new software to add to AlternativeTo and play the drums.

This is a great idea, and I tried it yesterday. It's good for those needing an MS Office-style/modern interface, but it is not as powerful as LibreOffice.
It's missing features that I use every day, so I won't be switching to it, but I may use it every now and then for testing purposes and maybe to file some bug reports if I run into any.
