Actually, LibreOffice does have an email address:
us...@global.libreoffice.org which is a mailing list just like this is a
mailing list. But to your question. Whether you should delete AOO or not
is simply your choice. You can have both programs on your computer.
However, you would be advised to not run both at the same time. I know
how to do this, but most do not.
Both programs have people who advocate for others to use their version.
They are even known to state things that are not true such as
"OpenOffice couldn't support itself any longer". Both have their own
mailing list as their support system. I recommend that you join one or
both of these mailing lists. (I as well as others are members of both.)
Since this is a mailing list where you sent your email, anything more
that you may want to know should be send to users@openoffice.apache.org
as you did this email. This way all members of the mailing list will see
your concern and can reply.

Hi,
LibreOffice provides no Support or email address so I'm trying this email
address to ask you guys a question.
I've had OpenOffice on my computer for many years.
Around May 10, 2020 I was looking at an OpenOffice word document after losing
computer access and internet access for two years, due to financial problems.
I noticed that no message popped on like before re "update available", so I
started web searching.
Some websites were basically claiming that OpenOffice couldn't support itself
any longer and recommending LbreOffice, so I downloaded it - it appears to be
almost exactly the same as OpenOffice.
I've got lots of documents on my computer I made over the years with
OpenOffice. Whenever I look at one now it comes on the screen, but I see a
LibreOffice logo. (I've only used the word processing portion of OpenOffice).
So my question is - should I delete/uninstall OpenOffice on my computer, since
Libre Office seems to read all the files with no problem?
Again, I'm only reaching out to you all since LibreOffice provides no Support
or email address (understandable if they're open source) - so I'm sorry if Open
Office went to it's demise, and if anybody is out there reading this I
appreciate you answering my question.
Thanks,
David
