-
Fred Says (@FreddSays) reportedLooks like you may be using Office 365 which is online. Better to buy a one-time purchase to install on your PC or Mac. Office Home 2024: £119.99 Office Home & Business: £249.99 Fully supported with updates and trouble shooting.

Ed Andersen (@edandersen) reported@matvelloso Yes their attach rate to office 365 is not great but the entire company is behind it. It’s not being wound down

Breck Yunits (@breckyunits) reported@Trace_Cohen The long tail uses of AI are enormous. There are so many things that open self-hosted models enable that are off the table with centralized controlled models. Think of *nix on satellites, rather than them phoning Redmond for a license renewal, as an illustrative example. I already see a higher exponential growth in brains investing in open models than frontier models. Similar to how when I worked at Microsoft, the best were all using *nix and *** at home. It will only hang on to the frontier if it can government capture. Now that's a huge possibility, perhaps even greater than 50%. I mean Microsoft's software is terrible, (Windows, Azure, Office 365), and yet crushes it because of gov capture. It would be financially reckless to short without accurately modeling that risk. But in a free market, open >> closed.

Fav ⚕️ (@favcardio) reported@rxbiu @mrajiabdulwasiu Yes there is, at some point it was down. Then later they migrated to Office365, since then it’s functioning normally. Got mine 2022

Glich (@Glich) reported@yonann partly true. I work corp IT. A good part of my users whould be fine with a chromebook. All there work in in office365 and chrome. and this year our standard low spec model we issue increased in price 50%.

Usama Mansuri (@usama_mansuri90) reported@Outlook @gmail Dear Support Team, I am experiencing an issue while configuring my Gmail account on Microsoft Office 365. This account is already successfully configured and working on five devices. However, I am unable to configure it on a sixth device. During the setup process, I receive an error message. Please note that our company email domain is hosted with Google. I kindly request your assistance in resolving this issue. Please let me know if you require any additional information, including screenshots of the error message. Thank you for your support.

Matt Talley (@tallemd) reportedOffice 365 has been priced at $6 per inbox for over a decade and during that time it has never turned a profit. I'm almost sure that means it's impossible. Normally you would shut down an unprofitable line of business but the military insists it is necessary for war effort.

Herewegoagain (@Cryptlowani) reported@EvanLuthra What is going on with these tech companies just taking away more of our rights and charging us more to do so?????? Microsoft "updated" my Office 365 Home addition with the "New" version. Not knowing this at the time, I open up Outlook as usual and thre was the "New" version. Less functionality and unusable to me. I located the switch to go back to Classic toggle button, slid it over, and Bam, a pop-up survey appears asking me why I dont like the new version. So now I can't do anything, twice as much. I scroll down and hit the skip button, but it is grayed out. Next to it is the submit button greyed out. Now totally pissed off I start typing expletives into the survey form. Guess what you have to complete the form to skip it. I and now not just pissed off, exponentially, but also feeling like the smartest person on the freaking planet. I don't know when it happened but tech, just basic stuff, has totally gone into the toilet. How is AI supposed to run on top of this garbage?

Maik Voets (@MaikVoets) reported@ariaradnia Only if you move from a Google workspace company to one that’s all choked up in office 365 you realize how bad their products are. Take collaboration in their office products. They still often have synchronization issues - these are the basics! Why can’t they figure it out?
-
Sciumo (@SciumoInc) reported@DeepValue47 On Azure. 👎🏻 If they force their Office dominance they’ll likely force @PalantirTech into the office document space. Office 365 web word support is terrible and everyone knows it. If Palantir integrates Team equivalent capability, the war will be on.
-
Shane (@Shane_L) reported@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…

Gabriel Lawson (@glawsontweets) reportedAgentic troubleshooting report: Tricky office 365 installation issue due to, unbeknownst to me, an unmounted drive. Claude code with Opus 4.7 max tried for an hour, failed to find cause. Codex with gpt 5.5 xhigh found cause and fixed the issue in 10 minutes!
-
ZBM2 (@zulubravomike2) reportedAssume low data rate and high ping. Now assume you're trying to log in to an Office 365 implementation of some sort. All that said, while astronauts are professionals, they're not IT pros and probably couldn't tell you the difference between outlook and an exchange server.

Eric Sauvageau (@RMerlinDev) reported@Diss0lution For many years now, the Office 365 installer is broken in French, instead of showing something like "90% complété" in the system notification icon, it says "90lformat error! complété" - incorrectly parsing the percent sign as a parameter. Trillon dollars company at work.

💯 Almin Ibrahimović MBA CGA FCMI CMgr CITP MBCS (@_almin) reported@Microsoft365 To use Scout, you need: 1. to be part of the Frontier Preview Program 2. need Office 365 Copilot Access 3. need local admin privileges on the device 4. your IT Admin needs to configure Frontier. 5. your IT Admin needs to configure InTune policy for Scout 6. your local IT Admin needs to agree to (attest to) and opt-in their organisation to third party inference paths. Note: "When data is sent to GitHub Copilot, M365 data residency, retention, eDiscovery, legal hold, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Sensitivity and Confidentiality Labels, audit, SLAs, and the Customer Copyright Commitment do not apply." Here is why this matters: If 'AI' extracts a list of sensitive intellectual property or customer data from a labeled document and pastes it into a new response, that new response has no label. A user could easily copy and paste that text into an external email or a public generative AI tool without triggering any data loss prevention alerts. Regulatory frameworks require strict auditing of where sensitive data travels. Because the new content does not inherit the source classification, your automated compliance systems lose track of that data. The responsibility shifts entirely to the end user to manually classify every single output generated by the AI session, which frequently leads to human error.

zedaking (@zeda_king) reported@KingDamilotun XLOOKUP (This only works on latest version of excel like Office 365 and has inbuilt error msg) INDEX-MATCH (works on older version of Excel, but more complex to write. The downside here is that you'd have to wrap it in an IFERROR function to return an error msg)

BackwoodsSafetyMan (@Goard_O) reported@unusual_whales Will AI need Office365? If not, Microsoft will be in trouble

Spicy Ice (@SpicyIce7) reported@EvaAnanova Bro i remember I got put on a migration from a file server to office 365 and share point and this was a key reason I left IT. My manager refused to listen to anyone and forced us to go ahead with this just before Christmas. It didn't work 90% of the machines had 4gb ram

Coco Freak (@Coco_the_freak) reportedSo 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 🙈😭

David Thole (@TheDarkTrumpet) reported@omninomsky @jiya_3063 WSL helps on windows, and has been quite amazing really. That said, one big "reason" for developing "preferring" windows really comes down to corporate governance and office tools. Many businesses run off Office 365, sharepoint, etc. Yes, you can run these in a browser, but with limitations. Another big reason is governance of machines. Machines are imaged, sent out and a good 25% of their utilization is just off of software like antivirus, threat scanning, etc. It's pretty inefficient, in my view, but can be an uphill battle to change it.

Usman Yaseen (@usmanyaseen) reported@BourbonCap Crazy margins are the problems no , Chris Hohn dumped it saying office 365 will be disrupted with AI

DataJuggler (@DataJuggler007) reported@FurkanGozukara I stopped giving money to companies I can't call. In July 2024, Microsoft expected me to go a month without email. I don't own a cell phone, email is my communication with the world. I cancelled Office 365, moved my mx records for my domain and went down to $1.50 a month.

Lalith Kumar V (@lalitvlk) reported@AmazonHelp Please refund my money. Your Amazon team is not at all helping me regarding this issue. They are asking me to search the brand (office 365) in google and contact them. Amazon has sold a fake product. It’s your duty to refund me .

Aaron Matthew Kaiser (@aaronkaiser) reportedI am really disappointed in @Apple Business. They finally launch a cloud platform for business mail, but you can’t set up a user mailbox if it was previously used in iCloud+ custom email domains?? I’m being told that it’s not just a 30 day wait, I will never be able to set those mailboxes up. And there’s no user aliases, no multi-domain email support. No multi-tenant offerings (not that I expect that yet). I get that it’s still in its infancy, but come on. These are basic features and they worked with the personal side. I found a way to create user groups with emails that seemed like a workaround to still get mail that’s addressed to these inboxes, but then I found out that they can only be emailed to internally from the same domain. Apple policies are blocking external senders. I spoke to four different support reps over 3+ hours yesterday and they don’t even understand this issue or how to fix it. They keep asking about where the domain is registered when it is clearly an issue deep within Apple systems at a very high level that needs to be changed. I didn’t like the Office 365 integration with the Apple ecosystem, which is why I was so excited for this. But not having access to my mailboxes and not even being able to implement a workaround IS A MAJOR ISSUE. What’s going on @tim_cook? How could this have shipped like this?

Glenn Scott (@glennsc) reportedIn 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.

NancoixSeattle (@operakatz) reported@OrevaZSN Why would anyone be trying to edit a PDF in Word? Edit it in Acrobat, where it belongs. And Word isn't a DTP app. Some of us know how to use it very well and don't have these issues. Not saying Office 365 isn't a hell hole, but at least use the right app for the job at hand

The Catalyst Edge (@zeatle2) reportedTwo very different setups. $CLOV (Clover Health) — not in today's scrub, but running off a REAL catalyst. 🟢 Medicare 4.5-star upgrade via federal COURT ORDER (court forced CMS to re-rate) 🟢 Covers 97%+ of members on Contract H5141 🟢 Higher star rating = higher CMS reimbursement rates in 2027 🟢 Q1 2026: GAAP profitable, revenue +62% YoY 🔴 Already up 18.9% yesterday — needs consolidation first This is a fundamental re-rating, not a pump. Medicare stars = real dollars. Entry: $4.70–$5.00 on pullback | T1: $6.20 | T2: $7.50 | Stop: $4.20 $MSFT (Microsoft) activity score 522 — #3 on the full scrub. 🟢 Enterprise AI Copilot embedded in Office 365, Teams, Azure — the deployment layer 🟢 Down 14% YTD = multiple compression on a franchise business 🟢 #3 scrub = institutional money starting to re-rate 🔴 ORCL's $40B raise rattles AI infra capex narrative — watch for spillover At $398, this is best-in-class enterprise AI at a real discount. Entry: $395–$405 | T1: $435 | T2: $460 | Stop: $380

purana (@purana) reportedNoticed Microsoft is still shoving stuff down our throats. I have Office 365 without the AI stuff, and noticed the app now has a diamond in the top right corner on apps which is where they push to you AI upgrades.. Just give me the app without all the extra pushed crap.
