William (@dxgl_org) reported@eternalsparrow1 @USCPSC They are still selling fraudulent capacity 18650 batteries but CPSC is not taking them down on that. Also the remedy involves contacting an @outlook.com email so CPSC is posing a potential cybersecurity risk.

Jay ♡ (@xwxfoxie) reported@lostliano @Outlook @Microsoft I see a lot of people hating on you which isn’t fair - I can see the effort, but I think the main issue is the typography - it just feels “off” (and then I’m not a fan of the tab switcher) - but other than that it is really really really good. Good work!
-

JJ (@JJimisen) reportedMicrosoft has to stop making so many changes to its menus in Outlook. It increases irritation and cognitive load too much if people constantly are having to track down where a command is, such as how to insert an emoji in an email. @Outlook #microsoft #microsoftoutlook
-
Tess Hope No2Self-ID 🦕🦖 (@TessHope3) reported@Outlook @Microsoft My outlook Email has been messed up by Microsoft. It developed persistent login problems, kept bombarding me with product adverts and freezing instead of logging me in. It forced me to change my password, now it wont accept either the old or new password.
-
Ad Libitum (@JSokaza) reported@Outlook So while my email password issue continues with the account you all took over, I decided to log into my substack which uses an email I made specifically for social media use. Guess what? That password didn't work either. Strange?
