I use LO every day. Day in day out. 4-6 hours a day.
I think the devs. have done a great job, I have hopped on their bus and the ride gets me just about everywhere I want to go. Of course there are always improvements, and I work a little differently from the average user so have to adjust as I like the bus I am on.

Hi,

Another feedback : do LO designers really use LibreOffice every day ?
I can tell you it really changes the way you consider software design, specially when bugs/bad design prevent you from doing your paid work, and your boss becomes angry...


Look at when one KDE dev (David Faure) just uses a software (Calligra Stage, an Impress equiv) for few hours/minutes :

https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/calligra-devel/2015-October/015296.html

--> Design is : "help users do what they have to do"

So design without any user feed-back is "designers in their ivory tower".




So why not create mockups with LO Draw ?


Or at least with some standard tool like Inkscape ?
Note that KDE is creating a toolkit with Inkscape for their mobile version : http://www.alexl.netsons.org/blogposts/mobile-oriented-hig-the-first-prototypes-and-the-mock-up-kit/
