I don't see any LibreOffice related processes on my Debian machine, but I have it installed. Does it do that on Windows only, or distros disable this by default?

> LibreOffice can be set to open on Windows startup

So, Windows only, and "can be set", probably not the default?

The installer enables it by default unless you go through custom installation.

That sucks. This is the expected behavior for most programs on Windows, at least in my experience.

One is open source free software, another is paid software backed by a billion dollar cap company. It’s a miracle OpenOffice worked at all. They’re not the same.
