Can Teams please fuck off and take Outlook with it?

I literally have Gmail connected into Outlook at work because of how much better it is than the shitty way that Gmail deals with long threads of emails, emails with attachments, and just finding old emails in general. GSuite in general is just hot trash compared to proper Office.

Gsuite workflow is terrible. You can’t copy paste files in drive because fuck you.
Gmail chat takes forever to load. And when it loads, it defaults to search contact. So if in the meantime, you pressed the contact you want already because it takes 5 seconds to load, it goes back to the search contact.
You need to have 5 different tabs to work within the ecosystem.
Google docs is dogshit. At this point, I prefer markdown with a latex converter over Google docs.
No desktop clients for their services.
The Gdrive shared with me vs your drive is terrible.

The only thing worse is New Outlook. They took away all of the power features and a good deal of the customization, and so you are left with something that feels like it was designed for a mobile app while you try to manage thousands of emails.

It’s literally their web app put in a Chrome window.
It’s outrageous. The Mac version of Outlook is way better, and it’s native!!

Big-time disagree. Been using Windows and Mac versions of Office for over two decades. The Windows version is far superior in pretty much every metric I can think of.

No way. I just switched to a Mac at work And I love the lack of integration with OneDrive, 365, etc. office on Mac is better because it hasn’t been made worse yet like the windows versions.

Not the first time either. Office2004 Mac was
peakthe last time I remember not hating using any Office app.raspberriesareyummy@lemmy.world 6 months ago
checks out - Offixe XP (2003ish) was the peak of MS Office, afterwards it became shittier than used toilet paper.

For now. That’s also being killed in favor of the web app.

its clear that eventually all the office apps will be web apps in either your browser or their own individual chromium instances. At least it means Linux users will finally get Microsoft office 🙃

And they absolutely fucked years and years of security training by fucking with url previews and truncating the front of the url.
What the actual fuck were they thinking?
kennebel@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Hadn’t realized that change was in there. What a mess.
Passerby6497@lemmy.world 6 months ago
I probably wouldn’t have either of my CISO didn’t have to deal with it (and bitched at me to try to find a fix) because new outlook is just the shit mail app with a fresh coat of paint.
They’ll have to take old outlook out of my cold dead hands.

I made the mistake of trying to mark 900 unread emails as read
do not do that if you’re in a hurry

Recently a LOT of my emails with hotmail have been getting blocked at the server level, they arent even reaching my junk mail, which makes troubleshooting why I’m not getting emails a nightmare, ESPECIALLY in this day and age if 2fA

New Outlook is just the old Windows Mail application reskinned. The fact that you can have both Outlook and NEW Outlook installed at the same time is weird. Working in IT, its one thing I check when working with end users.
