I do think Excel is the only Windows tool I couldn't replace (currently) with open source--the advanced tools (e.g. Power Query) really are a game-changer for analytics...will probably soon have some equivalents in Libre or Open Office, but still...

you could try gnucash for accounting?

No--it's really Power Query that I've used so much I'm now dependent...really opens so many doors for analytics...

But (really) as I think about it, it's Power Query I can't live without (and it's integration with Excel).

As a spreadsheet, Libre Office is perfectly adequate.
