Yet everyone uses it.
It because it's great, it's the absofuckinglutely worst of the worst, but they got key players to use it, the rest is forced into it with their closed off ecosystem.
There is a reason why Microsoft web products work so much worse oninix than they do on windows, and it's exactly what you think: sabotage. Word drops half of the text you type? Must be a Firefox issue, no? Yeah no, change the user agent to say you're edge on windows and all of the sudden it works. Still shittily, but it works as shittily as it does on windows.
When you feel the need to sabotage your already badly working products just to force your customers to stay with you, it really does show that you're just full of shit
Fuck Microsoft
OK guys, I want to share my Microsoft windows desktop using my Microsoft teams. In it I will share a PowerPoint and a spreadsheet. Can you guys see the microscopic text? Nope? But what if the big ass squares representing various people who are not even going to participate were slightly bigger? Could you read the smaller font then? Hey! What if we just showed one active pixel from the apps you want to share? Just make AI do it!
