    Outlook is a long list unto itself of random crap that’s probably going to go wrong.

    To be fair, it’s not like word or Excel are any less complex, but people tend to know those apps way better for some reason.

    The Web version is taking over. Just like they did with teams, they’re starting a webview version of Outlook. They’re very creative this time, calling it “new Outlook” 🤦‍♂️

    It’s all very dumb.

    I completely agree on the view settings too. It’s like a world unto itself just to sort and organize a single view of Outlook. I helped one user the other day, who simply wanted to see everything as conversations. It’s an easy fix, and it wasn’t the reason they logged a ticket, but it took about 8 seconds and I was already connected to their system.

    Do office workers not have a requirement to learn basic MS office skills anymore?
