@evan is "none" a valid answer too? Or "Markdown"?
@durchaus well, the question is "of these". None is a valid answer, but you can't respond with it for ActivityPub polls.
-
@evan absolutely ask the poll the way you want.
But OpenOffice is basically unmaintained and full of security issues these days and Iām curious who chooses or is forced to still use it.
@amd good luck on your learning journey.

@mpjgregoire did you use word this month?
@evan I used Word most recently on Friday, working on a proposal.
But on the other hand I used Jupyter -> LaTeX -> Emacs -> pdf on Tuesday, a publishing system that gave me much more pleasure. Not something that my colleagues will realistically repeat though.

Apache OpenOffice lists download information here, for everyone who is interested:
https://www.openoffice.org/stats/downloads.html
They say there have been about 390M downloads total. From the stats, I'm estimating somewhere in the low tens of thousands of downloads per day.

@evan bbedit.
@quinn you do your professional writing on bbedit?
-
@evan LaTeX/Emacs?
-
@evan I did not use Google Docs by choice. Some of my partners use it and I haven't convinced them to move off of it.

@netmackan that's great. There were a few replies along the line of, "Nobody uses Apache OpenOffice, why did you list it." The main reason I listed it was so I didn't have to have these conversations, which apparently didn't work. But it does have users, so I don't regret it.

@tragivictoria the question isn't what you use most often.

@starluna the question isn't about choice.
-
@evan LaTeX/Emacs?
@monnier What about them?
-
@evan Proton Docs more than any of the above.
@dennyhenke the question wasn't what you use most.
-
@evan You left out "none of the above" as a choice.

@ity I didn't want to waste one of my four available slots on nota, and ActivityPub doesn't have a native way to respond nota to a multi-option poll. The best you can do is a reply, which you did!

@evan Also Joplin. I am recently a big fan of Apple's Numbers spreadsheet. Don't think I'll use Google docs much anymore.

Hoping to go this year, I hear the fediverse will have a lot going on! @evan

It's exhausting. They keep coming and coming and coming, with their lobbyists, and their money, and their conservative think tanks and their damn moral panic.
STAND.
