Newest Mac version "Not Responding"

I am on a macbook running High Sierra and LibreOffice 7.3.3.2 and it is basically unusable as each time input anything it becomes “not responding” in Activity Monitor and I get the whiIrlng color wheel of doom. I have tried the work arounds offered in the boards…deleting preference files etc but no go. Cannot use this program since recent upgrade. Help.

Have you given LibreOffice full disk access from System Preferences > Security & Privacy?

I just downloaded older LibreOfficeDev 7.3.0.0. and everything works
fine!
