Because OpenOffice is hugely outdated and gets barely any updates. That's a problem for various reasons: - MS Office compatibility, which Libreoffice invests heavily in. - Security: from what I remember OpenOffice struggled to ship fixes to various security issues in the past years. Meanwhile LibreOffice invest quite a bit: they're able to ship security fixes fast, and have spent time fuzzing and otherwise hardening code. - Support: if you want commercial support, LibreOffice has that (not relevant for consumers, but important for enterprise). OpenOffice hasn't even had a major release since 2014, only very rare point upgrades. That kind of cadence speaks for itself. |
