It’s kind of a miracle if anything in the open source space isn’t on fire. The benefit of closed-source is you get to bite the bullet once, have the same issues and get told the same workarounds as everybody else.
But to your original question: LibreOffice still works all right for desktop editing, and if the OpenOffice debacle from many years ago is an indicator, it’ll probably still keep running with marginal updates until the heat death of the universe
Is it actually worse in terms of features? I only use LibreOffice and can’t tell, maybe I don’t know enough to compare to anything else besides in looks.

Well if we’re looking at a “history repeats itself” event, I still hope it won’t be Collabora replacing LO as the default FOSS office suite.

I don’t know about the features, the thing that makes me wary is that Collabora is a private company, unlike TDF which is non-profit.
