Man if Libre peeps and OnlyOffice UI/UX devs joined forces, we would be living in the year 3000.

The only problem with that logic is that OnlyOffice is a webapp, thus slow. Libre is Java but still faster.

AFAIK Libreoffice only uses Java for limited things and isn’t a requirement.

Pretty sure it’s mostly C++

Correct, Java is only needed for (letter) templates and macros.
I used it for years without any JVM installed... until I wanted to use a template. :(

Macros should work without JVM. But a few extensions (like the NLP Solver and LanguageTool) require Java.

Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
