Key FactsLibreOffice 26.8 Sets Download Record Without Default AI
Sep 9, 2026 · Reading time: ~30 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: cybernews.com
  • Released on August 26, 2026, version 26.8 recorded 1,031,162 official downloads within one week, a project record.

  • The project says the two-million total excludes most Linux installations from distribution repositories, so actual adoption may be higher.

  • The default installation contains no AI, while optional extensions support local models that, according to the foundation, keep documents on-device.

  • The Berlin-based Document Foundation says it has no subscriptions, upsells, telemetry, or user data to monetize.
