"WordPerfect is more 'intuitive' than Word".Word make your transition harder than it has to be One of the most infamous examples was a comment left on a post (expletives blurred below): And it’s definitely not the first time I’ve been on the receiving end of “Word rage”. This isn’t the first time I’ve answered a “why does Word do that?” query and gotten no response after. I sent her a fairly lengthy reply with my own screenshots, asked a few questions about her setup (yes, that matters), gave her a few things to check, and offered to jump on a video call to go over the problem with her to see if I could figure out why she was having such difficulties. My outraged correspondent described a feature that wasn’t working consistently as expected (complete with screenshots, which were helpful), and then continued pouring out her frustrations about how five years into using Word it still “eats lunch at least once every #$%^ day.” Why doesn’t Word do the same thing twice? It happened again just recently: the bursting-with-frustration email from a former WordPerfect user.
