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.

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
