    Love the FUD around Onlyoffice lmao

    “Every person from insert current enemy of the West is inherently evil and should be judged by their ethnicity. Everything they touch is inherently bad and should be avoided. You say it’s a proven and transparent FOSS application that’s one of the best suites right next to Libre office if not better for ppl switching off of M$ Office? Sorry, evil Ruzzians tainted it with their touch, means I have to downgrade it’s visibility and mark it in red” seems to be the mentality behind that

    least xenophobic/racist liberal

      A company is not a person. Choosing not to support a company because it ultimately benefits its home country, which is actively waging war, should be considered a negative. Whether it is enough not to use their services is up to each individual. As you said, it is a FOSS application, so if you aren’t using one of their paid plans, how much is it truly benefiting them?

      Also, I don’t think this is a “insert current enemy of the West” scenario. Ukraine isn’t traditionally considered part of the West, and it has support from most countries and people worldwide (not just the West).
