  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 peak the last time I remember not hating using any Office app.

      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 🙃

        Thanks but no thanks, I’ll stick with LibreOffice if it’s all the same to you.

        I’m sure it’ll be helpful for some people who just want an os that does what they’re used to, but I’ve been using libre for like a decade for a reason

  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?

    Hadn’t realized that change was in there. What a mess.

      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.
