Is there even a way to use MS365 office on Linux? Otherwise you kind of have to ditch MS Office anyways. Unless you count the browser version

If you want up to date office stuff your only option is the web version, and if up to date doesn't matter to you you might as well switch to something that runs natively since you'll have to deal compatibility issues anyway.

I haven't tested it, but I have heard that the web version doesn't even have very good compatibility with the local version which seems like it should be a focus for Microsoft considering a lot of people are paralyzed by the switch to Linux due to compatibility issues with only a select few apps, Ms office being one of them.
