  • Check out OnlyOffice. It’s a fork of LibreOffice that’s almost an exact clone of MS Office. It’s a fantastic program that should be familiar to anyone coming from Windows.

    Since you’re just using a VM, you should try out some other distros and then pick one to install on your machine. Linux Mint is great for new users just switching from Windows. I personally find the KDE Plasma DE to be the best replacement for the Windows 10 GUI, so I’d recommend you check out Kubuntu or KDE Neon.

    I’ve been using Pop!_OS recently, and it’s amazing. Everything works out of the box with no need to tweak anything, and I love the workflow features like autotiling and the launcher. The Pop! Shop is also something I’m appreciating more. It’s an excellent place for new users to look for software, and the flatpak support really makes it perfect for me. I’ve been using flatpaks instead of official repositories as much as I can recently, and it’s been a long time since anything I have installed has caused me issues.
