Does OnlyOffice even support open document formats? All they ever mention is Microsoft compatibility.

It does, as well as Microsoft Office: Wikipedia

Thanks, I couldn't find the info on their site, so I never tried their software, as I haven't used MS formats in ages. Maybe I'll take a look now. Although Libre Office works for me...

I think it'd be nice if people used latex, typst and markdown instead of docx and pptx (or open ones). Not sure about xlsx, maybe Matplotlib + SQL suit but they require programming knowledge.
