Rather than a facsimile, I’d just call the LibreOffice ribbon a distant cousin because they’re both office applications. The ribbon does slightly ease the friction of getting people to try LibreOffice, but like with the Windows UI and KDE Plasma, the similarities are surface-level and there are tons of differences. It’d be cool if public education taught people the UI of the commons first, not of the Microsoft defaults.
I’m pretty sure a facsimile of the ribbon interface is available in LibreOffice.
There is… It’s just really not very good. Last time I checked, it didn’t have keyboard shortcuts.
