I like LibreOffice, but I really wish they would put more effort into their UI, even just basic things like standardisation of controls and simple text spacing and positioning. This is taken from their video summary of 6.0:

Those are two different Gtk themes...

So is your issue that the dropdown sizes and associated font sizes are different?

No, I'm referring to the UI in general. The images just basic examples of poor and inconsistent text spacing and positioning. I didn't even mention the more important issues like the crowded dropdowns, poor layouts and use of space in general.

As I said, I like LibreOffice, but the UI needs work.

My only issue is that it's hard sometimes to find how to do something I'm trying to do. But that's also a problem in MS Office.
