  Microsoft's Empire Continues to Crumble Microsoft has 450 million Office 365 users. Their flagship AI product, Copilot, has converted just 3.3% of them into paying customers. The stock is down 12 to 15 percent year-to-date, and their CFO recently circulated an internal memo calling for a “tighter” organization moving at an “increased pace.” That is corporate code for one thing: more people may be about to lose their jobs. The question I keep coming back to is this: what happens when the company that built the modern office, the one that owns your email, spreadsheets, calendar, documents, and most of your work life, starts losing its grip on the one product it bet everything on? And what does it mean when Anthropic walks directly into Microsoft’s living room, right inside Word, Excel, and Outlook, and starts doing the job better than Microsoft itself? Is the world’s most powerful tech titan actually running on fumes? What if the $13 billion bet that was supposed to secure Microsoft’s future is becoming the weight that drags it down? Why are internal memos suddenly demanding a faster, tighter organization while their flagship software struggles under the weight of its own updates? OpenAI is projecting staggering losses, Microsoft’s stock just took a major hit, and the “exclusive” moat they thought they had is starting to disappear. So the real question is: is Microsoft still an innovator, or has it become a market-paralyzing giant that has lost its way? Today, we’re looking past the marketing and into the data to see why the pillars are starting to crack.

  Yep this is what I’ve always known. Problem is that Microsoft keeps treating XBox as if it were Windows, Azure, Office 365 and all its other business & productivity products & services, where there’s no respect for games as entertainment, experience and as an art form. #HearYou

  @OneNote In the OneNote app for Office 365 under Windows 10, somebody broke the 'copy link to paragraph' functionality. Intead of pasting a hsort clean link, it pastes the *entire URL'. This is broken, it works in the Windows 10 app btw. (But my notebook does nto work in the Windows 10 app. And the error happens in 'smaller' and 'neater' notebooks as well in the 365 app for Win10.)

  @paul_e_jones No, I have zero business with GoDaddy. But I have to deal with them for an issue that they caused through Microsoft office 365's design. The problem is that a domain name that belongs to my client used to belong to a company that used to have a Microsoft office 365 account provided through the vendor. GoDaddy. GoDaddy sells office 365 accounts. What happens is a domain name previously used with Microsoft office 365 but then the account expires and is never renewed because the company that held the domain name went out of business and sold in bankruptcy. Two company transitions later and we acquire the domain. So we go to set up Microsoft office 365 only to be hit with a message that we cannot provision the domain on their platform because of a previous tenant that just doesn't exist anymore in the real world. That business vanished a long time ago.

  Recently I've been thinking about how though microsoft does get a lot of hate, if you judge the company by its good products its actually genuinely a pretty good company. It just gets dragged down by the ****** versions of windows and the hell-scape that has become office 365.

  @Anas_Sloth @Yetee_ @WildSentences no, you are with your utter idiocy. what does "365" have to do with literally anything in this conversation? do i need 365 attacking computers? Do i need to use office 365 like a micro simp? If you can't even clearly make a statement, don't bother trying to talk to people. What document on 365? What ******** does that gotta do with anything? Your answer is clearly dumb and has no sustenance behind it. Just make a little sense will ya. like you started off telling me it isn't a network problem, it is a backup problem. while responding to my message talking about data replication(A ******* backup). Thanks for pointing out the obvious! If anyone is a troll here it is you. I say it is a backup issue, and then you tell me "No, it is a backup issue not a network issue." Like a backup doesn't live on a network, requiring networking knowledge. All while telling me about bandwidth( A ******* networking Issue!!!!!)

  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.

  @WindowsCentral Because...consumer. No human support option on first contact. Only AI, Forums & Forms. Automated responses. It's the same issue as consumer Office 365 user. If you run in a serious problem as data loss or exchange issues, you're screwed. Only commercial customer get a minimum

  @grayzoneintel I used to use ther legacy office 365 custom domain email (old OWA and domain control panel) They even blocked important emails from seagate lyve cloud when I was getting it setup and the poor rep and her team worked hours to try to get me to get the login confimation and they even manually tried to send it and it still was rejected by microslop's servers. so I quickly switched to zoho email for my custom domain and got the important confimation email with no problem.

  @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.

  Steve Ballmer explains the accountability trap inside founder-led companies. He had been Microsoft's 30th employee. When he became CEO in 2000, he says the first year was miserable: "Bill didn't know how to work for anybody." "I didn't know how to manage Bill." Then Gates gave him the line that changed the job: "I'm happy to help you any way, but I don't want you to need me." Ballmer says that was when it hit him: "We're not partners anymore. I have to take accountability." After Gates left, Microsoft pushed into Bing, Office 365, Azure, Surface, and hardware. Then Ballmer gives the scoreboard: "I started a company that had about $2.5 million of revenue and 30 people." "I left a company that had $22 billion in profit." I have seen this handoff problem inside scaling companies. The hard part is not respecting the founder. The hard part is knowing when the company needs one accountable owner of the decision. The diagnostic I would use: if the old partner still has veto power but no longer owns the result, the org is already confused. - Steve Ballmer on Bloomberg Television

  @moshymiss @JesterJum I run it on Zorin OS, but I also have a Windows 10 box running Libre Office. Runs flawlessly on both. Try it, you won't be disappointed. You can always uninstall it if you don't like it. Although, honestly, I can't fathom why anyone wouldn't like it. All of my work documents are generated by corporate Office 365. I've never had a problem working with any of those documents in Libre Office.

  @mistressdivy Lots of problems with OneDrive but the problem is not OneDrive. It was Microsoft's demand that Windows 11 or Office 365(have not really dug in yet) defaults to your one drive. This causes problems.

  Either this guy is deliberately being a hypocrite or he's woefully uninformed. Hard to believe people like this exist with zero knowledge about how the real world works. For my Canadian people EVerything in Canada runs on American tech Your iPhone/iPad/Mac -> American Your Android/PC -> American Majority of the things you interact with -> American Google, X, Claude, Codex/OpenAI, Instagram, Facebook, SnapChat, Office 365 (word, excel etc) Majority of Government infrastructure runs on Azure, AWS, GCP and leverages IBM, Deloitte and other big 4 for consulting. Fix that **** first - i.e. find alternatives (good luck btw) then the virtue signaling would make sense. Until then you people complaining sound like a bunch of ill informed cucks.

  @darknesss932 An attorney should request a server level search utilizing Microsoft Purview ediscovery. I would wager they are using office365 for email which means that a query kql could be created pertinent to the case executed on the entire tenant for the time frames involved.

  @reset_by_peer I'm sure if you removed revenue from pre-existing products where companies crammed in AI with demand for it and against the user base's general will, just so said companies could claim that revenue was from AI now (products like MS Office 365), actual revenue from explicitly AI products being used by consumers who explicitly want it, would be a rounding error on a rounding error.

  @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.

  @gabefollower Those lawsuits from those companies are straight up retarded. They claim Valve is monopoly and then in next sentence they say that 30% cut is too much. What they think will happen if Valve lowers it to like 15%. Consumers will choose Steam less? Hell no, they will like Steam even more then. As a result those companies will cry wolf even more that Steam is monopoly. Competition offers trash service, tries to bait with discounts and loses and them cries like babies. C’mon now. Epic owner cries every day about Valve and Steam and his “Game Launcher” is still mega slow and looks more like launcher for Office 365 than game launcher.
