    Its genuinely crazy how the biggest software compsny on the planet is genuinely completely and utterly incompetent at making software. Like xbox is one thing, but even their core PC software is a complete fucking joke.

    I unfortusntrly have to work with microsoft enviroments and if youre using a sharepoint list to store data and you hide a column, then want to unhide it, you need to go into the the kegacy version of sharepoint, then into the list settings, columns, then unhide the colum from there. And the “new” version of shsrepoint is like 3-4 yesrs old at this point, but still diesnt have all the basic features.

    Then theres powerapps, which is genuinely just awful. Like say you have an app with multiple buttons you want to change the colour of. You cant select more than one at a time and change the colour en mass, you have to do each one individually.

    Or when importing a project from another enviroment, you cant import multiple power automate workflows at once, you have to do each individually.

    And that not even touching on fucking windows.

    If they djdnt have the desktop PC market held completely hostage, they would have gone bankrupt a long time ago.

      I use a feature in Microsoft Outlook called “quick parts” every day to insert pre-configured tables into emails and “new Outlook” doesn’t have this feature.
