I did. SunOffice, then OpenOffice, then LibreOffice. It still isn't very good, though.

I think you mean "StarOffice" which later forked into OpenOffice, then LibreOffice.

Recent year or two LibreOffice has improved greatly as far as the UX goes and I haven't had to use Word/Excel in decades. When I have to use it for work I use the online app and office online apps are also garbage, especially compared to Google Docs / Sheets stability and performance.
