LibreOffice 26.8 set a new first-week download record

LibreOffice 26.8 was download more than 1 million times in its first week of release, which The Document Foundation say is the highest first-week figure of any release of the free office suite.

Released on 26 August, LibreOffice 26.8 saw 1,031,162 downloads from the official website, which provides installers for Windows, macOS and Linux, during the first seven days.

It's slightly older news, but definitely something worth celebrating if you haven't seen it.. For those who believe that open source is waning.. Think again :)
