Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I thought I'd better post an update about the Lemmy.nz census. I have been working on analysing the data and writing a post, but there's probably still a while before I'll be done. There's quite a lot to get through.

Also, if anyone knows any good tools for generating graphs then let me know! I'm using LibreOffice Calc as an excuse to learn how to use it, and it's graphs aren't that great. I can break out Excel if I have to but to be fair Excel graphs aren't much better.

I'm curious, can we have something like automation in LibreOffice? I mean like in VBA, where I can pull data and export excel charts.

LibreOffice Calc supports its own macro language as well as a subset of VBA! I recently converted an Excel macro to LibreOffice and it wasn't too painful.
