Like, I am manually copy pasting events in Outlook because it cannot share a subscribed calendar with my colleagues, why would I trust an org that ships UX like that to do magic?

I think this is an area where Microslop in particular doesn't get enough hate.
Why is Teams worse than Zoom was six years ago? You just mentioned not being able to copy paste. Why do we accept this?
Oh, right, because we have no choice. Cool cool cool!
I hope when the bubble bursts it takes Microslop with it.

@hdv microsoft word and its constant inability to understand what should happen if i delete a heading or something (create magical empty headings that are impossible to spot unless you look for them in the document outline) or deleting a bullet list and it still insists on leaving me with one empty bullet just in case...and so many other bullshit things

@hdv i'd love to just sit down the product manager for word next to me, show them how i edit a pretty simple document, and then punch them each time word does something completely unintuitive and illogical. "why did it just do that? explain!"
