Microsoft has done something else that broke another thing in outlook. Now I get zero search results when I try to search for emails. It's broken on my boss's computer, too.
How bad will it have to get before my employer looks for alternatives? Probably really, really bad.
@MLE_online Having previously worked in IT in Higher Ed: Microsoft practically gives away licenses to Educational Institutions, so the school's CTO is highly incentivized to do the "safe" thing and stick with MSFT through some real abuse.

@foxxtrot im not holding out any hope that they'll do anything about this, but the rate of stupidifcation of MS software we use seems to have accelerated a great deal

They also broke the email signature feature, lol. Now instead of appearing at the end of the email, it will appear at any random place -- at the end, at the beginning, right in the middle of a sentence. Good job, microsoft
@MLE_online Right in the middle of a sentence is a completely natural place for an email signature, stop imposing your unrealistically high standards on small software startups who don't have the staffing to write code by hand

@MLE_online don't get me started on signatures. I tried for the last year to have a unified signature for everyone (100 people company) I caved.

@MLE_online Yeah, if your bosses cared about Quality, Universities wouldn't use the Worst Groupware Ever Made: MSFT Teams.

@MLE_online Its hard to believe what organizational inertia will keep in place. I've only seen change when the existing option becomes so expensive they cannot afford to keep it.

@foxxtrot we don't use teams. Some offices on campus do, but most offices here use zoom

@MLE_online You know, I naively thought that going down for a full work day and refusing to apologize for it would end 365 but it seems like the entire "execuverse" just entirely memoryholed it in only a few months

@MLE_online nobody considers the cost of running windows, they never have, not even during the height of anti-virus software.
