How do I know which one I’m using? Are you talking about the windows store one (tablet one) being the one that’s discontinued while the one that’s bundled with o365 (desktop version) being continued?
Comment on Microsoft is killing OneNote for Windows 10
Undearius@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
This is not to be confused with the application called “OneNote”, that’s staying.
You can always trust Microsoft to make two version of the same application and to have really bad naming.

The OneNote Microsoft wanted to axe in favor of the Win10 OneNote a few years ago is staying, so they can axe the Win10 OneNote.

And it’s a web/Electron app anyways. At least the O365-connected version is.

Hell, just talking about teams in Teams is confusing enough.
floofloof@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
Are you talking about Teams in Teams for Home or Teams for Work and School, and is it Teams or New Teams you mean?
cyborganism@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
I… I didn’t even know there were so many.
PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Teams (Classic), actually.

Or an Office 365 Group

Not to be confused with SharePoint groups

Which is sometimes called Onenote 2016, bundled with Office. I think. Pretty sure there’s a third version too.

And to make bad naming worse naming, since they switched Office’s name to 365 Copilot, not to be confused with 365 (office premium), Copilot (ChatGPT interface), or Copilot (Office text assistant). Office was a perfectly serviceable name they’d used for decades. It’s like Twitter rebranding themselves to a single latter like Y. Why would they thrownaway branding like that?
People are liable to look for office, not find it, and go "oh, Microsoft doesn’t sell Word any more ☹️’

Their enterprise products as well. Azure is now Entra, all the admin page rebrandings like defender, purview, intune, the URL changes, etc.
Please just stick with a name already!!

Jack made HBO into Max. Lost all that recognition and fan support for what? Like I’m convinced more and more each day that rich people are just plain stupid.

That right there might beat Microsoft and Google name changes combined

Ms flow vs power automate… It’s like they’re not even trying anymore. And that’s pretty much what it is. Monopolies stifle innovation and development.
hemmes@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yes, that one too! smh
d13@programming.dev 1 year ago
Azure is not Entra. AAD became Entra. They did it because AAD was becoming less about Azure and covering more things than directories. So a rebranding made sense.
It’s a pretty dumb name, though. It doesn’t really mean much when you hear it, and it sounds too similar to other common words.

I got so sick of their shit. I think there were two Teams and Skype versions too. Wtf is their problem?? I just stick with LibreOffice for everything now, but eyeing OnlyOffice because of their cloud service.
ernest314@lemm.ee 1 year ago
OpenOffice is unmaintained, unfortunately (see the LibreOffice page explaining this); LibreOffice considers officially hosting a cloud service out of their scope but Collabora does (and you can self-host, of course). Their “Development Edition” is the free version that doesn’t come with an SLA.

ONLYOFFICE ≠ OpenOffice
ernest314@lemm.ee 1 year ago
… oh damn, I didn’t catch that at all. First time hearing about them. (looks like the all caps thing is canonical too)
I guess they’re completely unaffiliated with LibreOffice? looks like their product is intended to feel as close to Microsoft as possible
Undearius@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
Yes, there was Teams (classic) and Teams (new. There’s also Outlook (new) and Outlook (classic).
There was the Snipping Tool and Snip & Sketch, it even said they were getting rid of Shipping Tool, but then they got rid of Snip & Sketch instead but the function of Snipping Tools is the same as Snip & Sketch.
