    I personally pretty much stopped using Word Editors, and wouldn’t use a proprietary one if I did, but I recognise they’re still pretty important for the majority of people.

    I worked with a company that used O365 last year. Was kinda underwhelmed. Desktop Apps still don’t really work well with simultaneous editing of a document, Web Apps don’t have all the features of the desktop versions (didn’t matter that much in Word, but was annoying in Excel).

    I still think that the online collaboration implementation of Google’s Suite is still a lot more seamless. O365 Desktop and Web stuff feels like a weird attempt to mix two separate products.

    For most use cases I’ve seen, you could probably give the user any modern office suite, whether it be proprietary or open source, and they wouldn’t mind too much.

    Independent of all privacy concerns, I personally just don’t like Edge’s UX, but I recognise that it’s a serviceable Browser.
