Most people don’t know this, but OpenOffice is pretty much dead. It hasn’t been getting any real updates for quite a while. LibreOffice is pretty active and is the one you’d want to go with.
as the answers reflect: markdown for simple stuff (sou can convert with pandoc) and libreoffice for the more complex stuff and sheets especially (its preinstalled with most linux distros nowadays). documents of formal nature that exceed ~10 pages might work best in latex.
I’m getting into Linux which ones would guys recommend?
You could try OnlyOffice, I believe it has better compatibility with
.docxfiles in comparison to LibreOffice.LibreOffice and OpenOffice are the two most popular I believe. One will usually come preinstalled on your distro (for me in Fedora it’s LibreOffice.)
While I agree with LibreOffice as an option, no one should recommend OpenOffice anymore. Its just not well maintained.
