For what purpose do you use Word, Excel and / or PowerPoint from MS Office on your private laptop / PC?

I do not use Microsoft Office at all, but then LibreOffice.
I rarely need the software, neither privately nor professionally
If I have to prepare something (presentation, etc.) I use LibreOffice. But then I focus on the essentials
People who send me documents that are in Word format always make me extremely angry. This is a sign of incompetence. If you send me a text document, please in a reasonable format.

What reasonable format do you want, so that you no longer represent people as incompetent?

how presumptuous, given that MS-Office's market share is significantly higher than that of LibreOffice

I can understand this with Word formats, but both Open Office and Libre Office are able to open these files without errors. I only get upset by people who send files to Pages, because you just can't get them to work under Windows!

Word for writing letters

PowerPoint private rather rare. Only for editing screenshots and creating instructions

Excel for calculations, price comparisons and all kinds of comparative calculations.

Nothing at all. I take Open or Libre Office.

And there really only spreadsheet, mainly for the accounting of a club.

The text program rarely for letters. As soon as I do anything with pictures and graphics, I have Affinity Publisher (similar to InDesign), Affinity Photo (super picture editing, Photoshop replacement) or Affinity Designer (Adobe Illustrator replacement)

I also make presentations rarely and then also with Open or Libre Office.

People who send me documents that are in Word format always make me extremely angry

Why? I usually get the documents in Word format and almost never had any problems opening them in Open or Libre Office.

What do you mean, how the Word users are upset when you send those files in OpenOffice format. At least in the past, Word could not open it, as it looks today, I do not know, since I have already banned Word from the computer for many years.

Meanwhile, Word can easily open OpenOffice documents as well as vice versa.

No answer means for me so you have nothing but nonsense talked.

OK, I thought so. Such an imperfection can no longer be tolerated these days 😁.
