Compatibilty, stability, pdf export and import is all very good. Calc has no real differences with Excel for my use cases (less automated formatting options) Impress is a little lagging behind powerpoint in terms of compatibility and formatting option (this may nag you if you have to use templates from other people). Otherwise I have no issues working with LO on Linux in full Windows Office 365 coworkers
Do you use docx import / export? Do they work ok in your experience?
Not OP but in my experience it works fine for basic stuff, If there's advanced formatting or complicated spreadsheet formulas you will face varying degrees of breakage. OnlyOffice is also EU and has greater compatibility, but less features.
Cool, thanks for sharing!
