    Is it too much to ask?

    Unless you’re funding the devs to make Office 2021 compatible: yes.

    Use Cassowary if you need Office and want to use mostly Linux, it just stick with Windows.

      What I don’t get about Wine is that even ReactOS has better compatibility with some apps and I’m sure they have way less funding than Wine.

        but reactOS isn’t linux, they are made to run windows application, linux is made tobe linux, the comparation isn’t correct

        That’s not my experience to be honest. ReactOS seems to be lacking a lot of recent APIs that make break programs newer than Windows 7. ReactOS has fewer UI glitches because they reimplementated their own window manager, but that doesn’t make up for the random crashes in my opinion.

        I can run Chrome in Wine but very few programs actually work on ReactOS, let alone games.
