I find Softmaker FreeOffice easier to use, especially if you want a similar UI to MS office, german company but not opensource. Now, I only use it occasionally, I don’t know which one is better for heavy users, they have a paid version too.
For some reason I don’t fully understand, LibreOffice hides the option to switch the UI in View>User Interface. The option Tabbed seems to resemble MS ribbon-like style.
They should possibly consider to make that a default question on first start-up, like: ‘What interface layout feels familiar?’
