I get that it’s open source provided you use codium not code but I still find that interesting
MS Office 365 is also fully functional in a browser these days.
Personally I prefer the offline version for various reasons.
Offline use is a good point. I wouldn’t want to try and use google sheets in some kind of sandboxed scenario.
If google would release a local server I could run of google apps I’d love it. But any desktop version of the same I wouldn’t trust. I’d still want to access them via browser.
Not because of bad actors but just because of bugs in deployment of two different architectures for the same app.
