Does anyone use LibreOffice?  I'm not being cynical; I know it ships with
many copies of Linux and such.  But has it been adopted by any businesses,
specialty areas, academics, etc.?

(For example, I know WordPerfect was longstanding standard in legal
documents and it took it much longer to move to Word than many other
businesses.)
