Thanks for sharing your experience, alaraajavamma, very welcome. Testimonies about the PinePhone and LibreOffice are rare, and show manly the startup of LibreOffice, therefore I am not sure.
I found that Jacob Crume, a robotics student in New Zealand used a PinePhone daily for a year. Jacob wrote, that he often found himself using the PinePhone with an external monitor using it’s included dock, and that we was surprised at how capable the PinePhone is as a laptop, and that he often found myself editing documents in LibreOffice:

That is good news. The issues I have may also be caused by the fact that I am new to Linux and Jacob is a Linux professional. On the other hand, was there an update of LibreOffice which prevented the installation on the PinePhone recently? I was struggeling for three weeks with it, until the installation «just worked».
