'Developer NSG650 has succeeded in his attempt to get “Linux running in Excel.” The GitHub-hosted and aptly named LinuxInExcel project was uploaded to the cloud-based developer platform earlier this week, and updated with input support just yesterday.'
Industry studies show that 90 percent of spreadsheets containing more than 150 rows have at least one major mistake. Yet we keep using them for mission critical projects

I need to set up a private spreadsheet that is viewable and editable by an elderly relation (who uses spreadsheets all the time) and a couple of younger family members, one of whom lives interstate.
The obvious answer is Google Sheets. Is there an alternative that is usable for these people?

A tip for spreadsheet users that I have learned from watching a mistake made by others:
When you use
=MAX(M2-X2/M2,0.1)
to place a floor of 10% on how low you want your calculation to be of a fractional positive gap to reduce M2 to X2 by, please try to remember that the X2 cell value could be *already greater* than the M2 cell value.
You probably want
=IF(X2<M2,MAX(M2-X2/M2,0.1),0)
or similar.
Because if (say) M2 is 6.81E+10 and X2 is 7.99E+10, then your calculation is going to come up with 10% instead of 0%, let alone the correct -17%.
Which might be embarrassing. (-:
Do you know how to make spreadsheets safer? Do you have ideas to improve how ordinary users can find errors faster and correct them more easily? Do you provide spreadsheet training which includes recommendations for good practices?
