no you are not alone, OpenOffice/LibreOffice has always been just plain and simple a terrible piece of software. The license alone can not make up for it. From the icon set, to any of the most basic UX/UI, the experience is just horrible. I could sit here talk for hours on end about how horribly broken it is, that it can't even render fonts correctly (kerning anyone?) to how it can't format anything correctly (and people complain about Word oh boy try libreoffice and will you will know what pain looks like!). Even if I would take 10 times as long doing the same exact document in LateX I would still prefer that (or some closed alternative like gdocs ofc.) over this dumpster fire.
