LaTeX. It does everything Word can do plus it makes your documents not look like shit.

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll check it out.

How exactly does it make your documents "not look like shit"?

Typesetting is on next level compared to Word. Also since I assume you are a beginner in LaTeX, I'm going to recommend you Lyx (https://www.lyx.org/). LaTeX is actually not a word processor, but a document preparation environment (language + compiler). It requires more learning that traditional word processing applications, but results are worth it.

Here are some examples:

It's all about plain text.

>Best freeware that can compete with Microsoft Word/Office in terms of features
you can edit doc/docx in browser these days

That looks phenomenal, and I could see why a technical writer would prefer it. Word can absolutely do the same, but like all Microsoft products the advance features are so completely hidden behind submenus and suboptions by design that you almost need formalized instruction to make sense of it, on top of the fact that it's expensive, on top of the fact that it's so broad in application that you have to take dozens of hours to adjust the settings to what you need it to do.

I appreciate the the recommendation. I'll check it out.

Browser-based editors are incredibly feature-lite. All of them. You're better off using whatever word processor was packaged with the OS.
