Lead paragraph
Modern reviews of LibreOffice often say LibreOffice supports Windows, macOS and Linux; To me this is immediately a negative review, as people nowadays expect applications for a variety of mobile devices plus an online solution too. To help educate I suggest we update the lead paragraph. Note that when hovering a mouse pointer over the word LibreOffice in other Wikipedia articles, the first paragraph is displayed, something similar occurs with Google search results too, but note that if the paragraph is too long it gets truncated. I believe it is available as a native app for more operating systems than any other office suite, this is notable! How about this as a potential updated new lead paragraph:
- LibreOffice (/ˈliːbrə/) is a free and open-source office suite with broad device and operating system support. It runs on desktops and the LibreOffice Technology software is used upstream by companies providing solutions for the web, tablets, smartphones and Chromebooks. LibreOffice was forked from OpenOffice.org in 2010 as a project of The Document Foundation (TDF)
- The rest of the current 1st paragraph could be moved into new paragraphs or other sections such as history.
- A similar lead paragraph change could be done for the 3 Wikipedia articles for Writer, Calc and Draw. Note that Draw functionality is now mostly integrated into Writer in the 3rd party mobile and online LibreOffice solutions.
