If there's a company Office 365 subscription, just use the Online version on Linux where needed (unless macros are required).

@sbiewald if macros are required I fear the issues are much deeper than that....

Get a Mac and you'll have the best of both worlds. Unix-based OS that can still run Office.
Of course, I hate MS Office and only use it because I have to, so I'd be happy with a Linux machine for work. I'm just glad the Mac was provided by my company so I didn't have to buy it, or I would've just gotten a much cheaper Linux laptop instead and used Office 365 Online. -
jaylord4544y@EmberQuill so your advice is: get a mac, just don't buy one? 😁
Microsoft knows windows is not the shit, heck wouldn't surprise me if 90% of Azure runs on Linux-something.
But you can't beat it for consumers. Combine any amount of components, and it will run windows without su powers
