I think I belong to the exception, but outside of work, I prefer the Mail app to Outlook because of its simplicity.

I’ve tried the new Outlook but it was useless to me since it doesn’t support anything outside O365 and Google accounts. They forgot there are people that might want to use a simple IMAP/SMTP account within the client 🙄

The good news are: they enforcing this will push me to Thunderbird, I guess…

Microsoft is pushing me towards Linux for my next OS. I've yet to make the jump due to time constraints, but I use many Linux OS in my homelab. I'd lose some functionality I'm used to with Windows but at this point the minor inconvenience it'd have outweighs the issues I'm having with thier forced decisions on their consumer base.

The only way to fighting these anti consumer behavior is to vote with your feet... Microshit went from mehh to worse than google last 2 years.

Like wtf did I pay for this useless license for... jfc
