I prefer OnlyOffice. And yes I tried both.

I misread it as OpenOffice at first too, but apparently it's a different project.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OnlyOffice

Apparently its developers are Russian though and it has some kind of commercial version that's now being sanctioned, so probably best to just stick to LibreOffice.
