  @GrayBlue I've tried it on both desktop and Chrome. Neither seems to work reliably. Part of the issue is that Office365 doesn't reliably forward messages either. Use Case - we've been acquired. I have a Newco email (MS) and an existing email (GOOG). Newco is forwarding but is fickle.

  @adahstwt Just deployed a small app for one of my company’s franchisees to use. Deployed on Azure because we use Office 365 and I could rely on existing MS accounts for auth. Never again… terrible experience. Azure is so disjointed…

  Let's put some "customer" information in here, so you have a better perspective. First, most of us who live in cyber security world avoid Edge like the plague. It is malware gangrene. You have designed it so that it digs in to every piece of our system, gathering our information, and we can't configure it to stay out. Security concerns. Let's add another problem, which is creating problems in daily operations: Office 365 has been designed in a way that prevents us from normal functions that we valued highly in Office Professional 2016, which was your cleanest, most professional WORKING version. Fast, efficient, and without the intrusions of 'phone' children processing. The new O365 is the least professional of all the versions you have 'improved.' I don't care about you tracking my daily work, giving me a 'viva report.' In fact, I want that deleted. There are so many bugs in O365, such as synching issues, wherein entire strings of emails disappear from the in box if I use a different device to respond to a Customer. There is a LONG list of 'improvements' you force in during updates that are actually damaging to work flow. Further, trying to force us into the NEW outlook is enraging. We keep using the "classic" to survive all your bugs and bad screen layouts, and the lack of controls your new version has imposed, and it keeps flipping back. SOOOOO many things we all hate about O365 and you do nothing to fix them. YOU have decided how we should do business. These childish relabeling and moving episodes of commands does not improve your product. Example: There was a function that allowed me to open an email, search 'all related emails' and find an older piece of the conversation. That's gone. Why? Many of the admin functions in settings are simply gone. Same with the new Windows. When I go research in various communities, MANY humans have the same complaints. Everyone hates the new versions of both products. SOME OF US are required to work offline, we do not work in your clouds. We have to have everything on the computer unit to travel without cloud access. You have made that a major problem. Do yourself a favor. If you want us to actually LIKE you, instead of hate you all day, take a survey here. Ask everyone what they miss about the old product, just start with 2016 Office Professional, and ask what they hate about O365. Ask about security problems, ask about the sentiment regarding Edge being forced on us, without the ability to uninstall it. Learn this: We are paying your salary. Learn this: We are all unhappy with the current product. Millions of us are heavy-use professionals that need the cleaner version. The current online version is even worse than that desktop app. Learn this: 2016, literally, was the last clean version you produced/coded. Once you went all SAS and cloud sales focused, you trashed a great product. Maybe have a team researching all the public comments and problems.

  @aakashgupta In all fairness to Microsoft, if the NASA Admin doesn’t set their Office 365 location to #outerfukingspace they might have an issue logging in.

  @signulll I used to think MSFT was oversold, but I now think they have a major issue. Office 365 is not agent friendly, the OS is from a different era. Teams is a disgrace.

  Did you know that personal devices can become gateways for corporate data breaches? A recent case revealed a malware attack that accessed Office 365 through a compromised BYOD. The fix? Continuous monitoring and behavior analysis! How secure is your work device? #CyberSecurity

  I’ve long said that digital wallets have a *distribution problem* In larger economies, 1/3 of people work for big enterprises And when you consider that Office365 has about 50% marketshare... ...the addressable market for a new portable employee ID becomes *absolutely massive*

  "GitHub's scale is unprecedented." No, it really isn't. GitHub: 150M total users. Office 365: 345M total users. Xbox: 500M monthly active users. Bing: 100M+ daily active users. The company that runs Office, Xbox and Bing can run GitHub. If reliability is slipping, that's a priorities problem, not a scale problem.

  @medsci_yb3r @MicrosoftLearn @Microsoft The problem is that the Office 365 tenant is linked to the organization's email. Then any app on a private device that uses the org email &...tenant to sign- in is linked with office(.)com, even though the linked apps have nothing to do with Office 365. It has further consequen..

  In order to penetrate an Office 365 organization, you have to get through the Entra ID administrator. Non-trivial. Right now the Claude connector is asking for Read-Only permissions on a very restricted surface of the tenant. That’s the foot in the door: maybe that gets you through the admins, but it’s not game changing for customers. Sure, you can ask about your meetings or who sends you lots of email but you can’t DO anything, You need write. You need delete. If Claude asked for read-write, or any larger scope beyond the user, then you’d hear a big record scratch. They will be instantly shut down by the admins and CISOs. But CoPilot = Microsoft. That means: they have everything, the enterprise admin already trusts them, which means more permissions and thus better features. Right now Entra ID is a moat and this Claude connector is no threat, Perhaps this will get Microsoft off its ***. Or maybe they just acquire Anthropic.

  So aparrently, the „Smart“ App Control from #Microsoft in the #Windows „Security“-Settings blocks you from installing #office365 … and you have to PERMANENTLY shut off that „Security Feature“ to fix this issue … fml why did i go into IT-Support 🙈😭
