Comment on Why is UI design backsliding?

  Then how will I find new features? How will I use other computers? I just want the functionality organized in some predictable way and leave me some place to work in. I want my work to be the focus, not some designer on peyote’s idea of a good time. And I want to be able to do it on any computer I happen to use

    Then customize it. If you’re using Office, it should even be transferred between devices. This is exactly why you can customize it: so you can make your type of work your focus.

    I’m not here to defend MS or anything, but I can’t help pointing out the answer right in front of you.

      Ah yes, the cloud dependency required to edit a local file, or the added delay of customizing every time I use a different computer

        How often are you doing work on another computer? You probably have like 1-3 you use on any regular basis, just set them up and forget it.
