Word documents will be saved to the cloud automatically on Windows going forward

dumb question - but how best to edit/update word files on linux/ubuntu?

The only issue with linux I am wondering about is sharing my CV where most companies need a word file.

For dev work/play time - 100% linux

Libreoffice has always just worked for me, but I don't do anything special with word.

I've also heard that OnlyOffice is very good and has better compatibility with Microsoft's formats, but I've never personally used it.

Maybe it's regional, but I've never been asked for a Word file resume.

I've never had somebody turn down a PDF. And all of the "Upload you resume" online applications I've seen also support PDF. A lot of them lately will even correctly parse out the info and auto-fill forms with it, but some of them mangle it.

For CV I use libreoffice and save it as a PDF/a. If it needs to be editable for some reason you can use docx or odt(odt might scare the average office worker so stick with docx).

Ok! I can just use Google docs! it downloads automatically as a word file and it looks in word pretty much exactly how it looks in Google docs

Personal Office is a total waste of money
