I'm curious about how to emulate Microsoft Office while using Linux. I came across a project called Linoffice on GitHub, and I'm wondering if it's a good option and if it's safe to use. Has anyone here tried it or have any insights on it?

Linoffice actually runs a virtual machine with Windows and Office installed, which you access through FreeRDP. If it's just about using Office apps, you might want to set up your own Windows VM and connect via RDP directly. It seems like Linoffice is built off some work from the Winapps project too.
But why does it need RDP? Isn't there an easier way?
