Now I understand why at each windows 11 update, they introduce more bugs than ever

    I’m still forced to use Microsoft Outlook and teams, unfortunately, and boy oh boy is it bad.

    Yesterday i spent 45 minutes of a 1,5 meeting (that would have been 45 minutes) on trying teams to please try and use the right microphone, please share a screen (not working under Firefox or chrome now, apparently)

    I can’t wait for the day that I have some time to get us off that dog shit

      I love that Outlook occasionally fires up one of its keyboard shortcuts and clears your entire email you were typing if you’re not paying attention.

      Fucking love it.

        Yeah WTF is that about? Office picks up on my keys at least once or twice a day, I don’t have that issue with any other program. Just another day in Microsoft land, and it suuuuuucks

      Outlook is pretty damned bullet proof, Teams, OTOH, is a fucking mess. I can see IT wanting to keep everything in the same ecosystem, that’s perfectly sane, but I’m certain Zoom can be setup to honor AD credentials. We set it to use Google SSO.

        Outlook…

        Ok

        Pretty solid

        Bahaha hahahahaha

        Sorry.

        Outlook is a lot of things. “Gooey crap” would be one way to describe it, but “solid”? Yeah, no. Gmail is (well, was) pretty solid. There are a lot of other webmail providers out there, including self hosted options and most are pretty solid, yeah. Outlook, though? It’s a shit show, it’s annoying.

        Do you love me? Please love me, please give feedback, please give feedback again, please look at this, hey am I the best? Am I…

        STFU YOU PIECE OF CRAP! Can you PLEASE just let me do my email without being an attention whore every hour?

        Even down to the basics. Back button? “What is that? Never heard of it, can’t go back to the message I just was on because I’m Microsoft software and so half baked.”

        Having two tabs open? “Oh noes, now I get scawed, now I don’t know how to manage sessions anymore, better just sign you out everywhere.” What is it with Microsoft and not being able to do something basic as sessions normal? I’m not even asking for good, definitely not “awesome”, just normal, and that is already too much to ask.

        Try running it in Firefox! I’m sure it’s totally not on purpose, just “oopsie woopsie poopsie” accidentally bwoken. Maybe it’s working again today, who knows, tomorrow it’ll be broken again. I run everything on Firefox except the Microsoft sites, they have to be in chrome because fuck you, that’s why.

        Seriously, I can’t take any Microsoft software seriously at this point, and all of it is on its way out in our company, I’m making sure of that

        Ha, yeah my Outlook will randomly just not be able to connect to server when starting up. This is from fresh boot every day, some days it just can’t, have to reboot and then it works! Fucking brilliant, they managed to break email.
