I'm sorry to hear that.  However, I don't think that's a problem which
is specific to LibreOffice.  Indeed, the article explicitly mentions
that the author has common problems with Microsoft Word crashing whereas
LibreOffice Writer remains stable.

If you need help configuring your system, we can help :-)  Though I
would be surprised if a LibreOffice crash was due to misconfiguration.
Is there something else that isn't working?
