OpenOffice was a really solid Microsoft Office rival, and FOSS to boot. Made by Sun Microsystems, of course, and then ruined by Oracle (of course).

Thankfully LibreOffice was forked from it and is still going strong as a very capable suite of document tools. And OpenOffice is basically dead, womp womp.

And before OpenOffice there was Star Office.

Now I feel old.

Especially as I also remember when I used to write with Lotus Word Pro.
