"But it doesn't have that one function that predicts the circumference of an ant's hind segment based on the diameter of breadcrumbs it carries! I use that every day for vital work!"
I'm trying to befriend the filter options in libreoffice calc but it really can't compare with the create table from selection and built in filters and sorting that excel offers.
https://help.libreoffice.org/latest/en-US/text/scalc/guide/autofilter.html
That and also that I haven't found any good f-droid apk to open the librecalc on my tablet.
All I want to use my tablet for is to change key values in brewing recipes and have them recalculate for the new volume, I prepare my brewing recipes on my computer in librecalc but now I'm stuck with multiple static pdf prints for different common volumes instead of using the real recipe book on the tablet.
I keep at it though, my private computer is Microsoft free and will stay that way. Some friction is lessening from getting used to libreoffice calc but some functions just can't compare, the amazing tables of excel being the one I miss often.
