German federal state migrates 30.000 PCs to LibreOffice
Attached: 1 image With the world changing around us, many governments and organisations are trying to reduce their dependency on tech giants. Here's an update on how one German federal state is moving 30,000 PCs to LibreOffice (and longer-term, Linux): https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2025/...

Mooorrre!
Beautiful .... I wish more and especially smaller organizations and businesses and groups just switch to LibreOffice because they don't really need all that complicated private overhead in order to do what they need to do.
They say this every year.
It's a negotiation tactic for their Microsoft licenses
Nah, they're serious about it. Note that it's just one of the 16 German federal states. The other 15 sadly don't have the necessary courage or integrity to make the switch.

Thanks, updated
Hmmm... Is this a German version of libre?
It is a typo.
Funnily it means Book in french.
Good luck with it. Hope it doesn't fail like the LiMux project back then.
Did that one actually fail for valid reasons, or just because Microsoft blackmailed the city by moving their headquarter location?
You might want to fix the typo in the title.
