I first saw this on reddit, but I figured it would be good to make sure that this also stays accessible on another platform

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I would not really recommend LaTeX or any of those other programs just for writing student papers. LaTeX is for academic papers and it's pretty cumbersome and technical to learn, it would be very very extra to use it for writing just like your random freshman comp paper. I'm not sure why that list doesn't have LibreOffice or OpenOffice or whatever.
