  • This is a good idea. In [this question](https://powerusers.codidact.com/posts/281809) **@Lundin** is requesting for a new category where following topics are included :
  • - MS Office
  • - a subset of Google's G Suite that includes Docs, Sheets, etc
  • - Libre office and open office
  • - WPS office
  • - Zoho office, etc.
  • In [my answer](https://powerusers.codidact.com/posts/281811#answer-281811) I said :
  • >Is it wise to create new categories or sites for every 100 software?
  • In this question you are requesting to create a new category for Software. In [this comment](https://powerusers.codidact.com/posts/281809#comment-10354) @Lundin said
  • >The main reason is that if the main category contains some 95% office suite questions, then people will hesitate to ask other types of questions here.
  • That's why I will say `Software Recommendations Category` is a great idea.

  • Actually, there's some reason of requesting software category. Some users in Unix SE and Superuser just like to answer "OS" related question. And, I believe some users in this site want to answer "OS" related question also. But, currently most of people are asking software related question. That's why I think if there was another software category than it will be helpful for users to answers/reviewing question.
