What software do you use for writing?
However, a few months ago started switched to Apostrophe (Desktop Linux) as my writing driver, leaving LO Writer only for editing and spellchecking. "Markdown" style editors like Apostrophe are a simpler interface and focus on what you really need — to get the words out of the brain and into paper / e-paper. Spellcheck and proofreading can come up later (and for that I still go to LO Writer since it's easy to work dictionaries for it). Plus, it has a simple export to HTML that allows you to quickly send and share stuff to eg.: beta readers.

FOSS markdown editor
The two best I have used are Apostrophe and ThiefMD. Both are available as a flatpak if your distro doesn't have them in the repos. Apostrophe is the nicer writing experience for a single document and exports through pandoc. ThiefMD isn't as good at exporting, but it has a wide variety of themes available, and keeps an organized library for you, similar to Ulysses on mac os, which makes it perfect for notes and longform writing. Regrettably, there doesn't appear to be in the settings for RTL for either of them...
