> However, I feel like it needs to be said: Microsoft makes bad products[1]! They're overpriced, insecure, slow (it's astounding to me how slow their web properties are), and hard to use. Easily some of the worst UI I've ever seen and, what's worse, they've been like that my entire career. They keep slapping lipstick on the same pigs and claiming to have reinvented themselves. Some think tank should make an analysis how many billions of dollars are lost in productivity across the globe if you compare the current MS Office stuff to an alternate of "the Windows 2000-era stuff, but with security patches" or "the FOSS office stack, with more money behind it". Anyone wanna estimate how many digits that number has? (Teams, while being ungodly slow, at least has the value proposition of being an integrated product - persistent chat, file sharing and voice / video calls - that really didn't exist in 2000)
