    The asshats for some reason felt that they needed to reinvent it as basically a web app and it’s broken in so many ways, and I think it’s lost feature parity with mobile and Mac instead of gaining. Sheer incompetence.

        He’s going to keep all his wealth and maybe stroll into a high paying “consulting” gig. It’s unfair. it’s unjust. People who are bad at their jobs and making the world worse do not deserve immense wealth and comfort.

        Why? It’s super funny to watch if you don’t use Windows. I hope he stays forever and burns Microslop to the ground.

      The way I see it: Corporate web apps (like Microsoft’s) are evidence that the maker is putting administrative concerns ahead of user experience concerns. They’re catering to the people who actually pay for this stuff, not to the users.

        I switched to linux a bit over a year ago but had around a decade of feeling like MS and I disagreed about whose computer it was before that. MS has given me many “why the fuck would you do it like this!?” moments.

        It’s so much nicer using an OS where when something doesn’t yet work as I want it to, I don’t assume “because the people who made it are greedy assholes” is the reason for it.

        Though I’d argue that they aren’t just catering to those who pay for it, but also to themselves and various metrics and revenues they want. Like disabling autosave if you aren’t saving to onedrive wasn’t likely from any corporation other than MS itself.
