minus-squareStamets@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up11arrow-down1·1 year agoI am one of those users. I use wordpad for prepping my DnD games. MS Office is beyond bloated and slows my pc to a crawl when it’s open. Same with Open Office and LibreOffice if I’m honest. Both hog too many resources. Guess I’m moving over to Obsidian full time.
