So, at school we use the whole Office 365 suite for a myriad of tasks.

Teams is used as the main way to share exercises and lesson material, Outlook is used as the resident email service, and you’re expected to use OneDrive to store all/most of your data. There are some additional apps that require Windows, but beyond the office 365 suite they are all replaceable.

What I’m wondering is, what distro can run/access those apps without too much hassle and set-up?

I’m looking to do this on a HP probook x360, upgraded to 32 GB of ram. The only peripheral of note I’ve got is a Ugee drawing tablet, but I can use the openTabletDriver or their own on some distro’s.

    I’m using arch Linux. But for the most part I don’t think it really matters.

    Flatpack Teams, and web version the rest of the M$ software.

    It works well enough. Though web versions of M$ software is weirdly limited for reasons I can only understand as arbitration.

    For instance very large excel files don’t load in web excel, and iirc you cannot insert formulas in web word.
