Like title asks. I use the program for my writing in Microsoft Word, and wanted to know if Linux supports it, or Grammrmley? If not then what alternative are there for Linux?

LibreOffice works with LanguageTool, which is basically just open source Grammarly. So maybe give that a go and see how it works for you.

@Fredselfish Is Prowriter same as ProwritingAid? If so yes, if not I don't know.

I believe so yes. That's good to know. Does it work with the plugin with the Writing program on Linux as well?

@Fredselfish I have not personally used it, I've just seen it advertised as working with LibreOffice.

Coincidentally, I made a post about the merits of replacing ProWritingAid or Grammarly with Grammatik, a grammar checker from 1998.
