Please don't leave bad reviews here for issues that are no fault of LibrePythoista.
Open a issue on https://github.com/Amourspirit/python_libre_pythonista_ext/issues where we can have a community discussion about such issues.

Even though I agree, I'm afraid this user must be very frustrated since it seems LibreOffice as a whole became unusable. The following information might help: Is possible to uninstall the extension even if you cannot start LibreOffice?
