We Love Performance... So We Love LibreOffice 6.4 With This Office Suite Now Running Faster

Anyone knows what's up with "LibreOffice Viewer for Android"? The last available version is very old. (~2 years old)

I don't think it's in development anymore... I uninstalled it when it started segfaulting a lot.

Actually, it doesn't seem to be present on Google Play anymore. The Document Foundation only has a single application - Impress Remote. Who published the LO viewer? There is some code at https://github.com/w7849516230/libreoffice_android, but it doesn't look official

It's already been 10 years since LibreOffice was announced?

I feel old

x2, I remember buying StarOffice 4.0 for Linux, back in the late 1990's. I probably still have a copy saved somewhere!

What the ever loving fuck? Packing their own QR code generator. That is so, so, so not Unix. Don't they know that we have a one tool to do it right philosophy? By including that they clearly don't care about traditional Unix philosophies and I don't know if I can use LibreOffice anymore.

Yeah, adding a QR generator - that's the problem.

Not that weather you crash a drawing a document or a spreadsheet will kill all your drawings, documents and spreadsheets, since it is a single application that does all.

Correct, it's being replaced by a solution, which shares the codebase with LibreOffice Online and the iOS version.

The code for the "LO viewer" is still where it always was... in the official LibreOffice repository.

Now LibreOffice Calc can crash inexplicably in less time than ever before!

Hmm, I didn't realize they have pulled it. I have had it installed quite a time now.
Going to their wiki page, it seems that they propose this beta from Collabora. (this beta change change seems very new)

No flickering here and I don't know what to watch out for. A bog standard 60Hz IPS display; HW acceleration is enabled.

HW only? And or OpenGL?
Here works both. openSUSE TW. Polaris 20.

Ahm, I had a former Windows version, too...

Our home bank offered StarMoney 'for free', too.

do NOT show up on my version 6.4.0.3 on openSUSE TW.
Only on Windows?

Indeed, I'm surprised that you're not using troff instead. LibreOffice has also got a spellchecker, which is outrageous given they could just pipe it through hunspell.
