GitHub also does something similar. Both Microsoft products. Very annoying. If I click log out, log me out, don't make me click the button again, staying logged

  Also please don't make me log in again (on a new device) to unsubscribe from emails.

    I'm pretty sure that's a violation of the U.S. Can Spam Act, so I always mark emails that do that, as spam (after verifying there is no other unsubscribe link).

  I had a frustrating experiência with Outlook login, some time ago. I wanted to log into my MS account in a new computer. I expected the usage of their trash app, the Authenticator, to validate my credentials, but instead I was met with a message saying that I had set up a "Github log in" thing. I actually didn't know what it was, but I couldn't find anything related to it in the Authenticator app nor could I log into GitHub to check this "configuration" out, but I couldn't, because I needed access to my email account, which is what I was trying to achieve in the first place, to receive the confirmation code. A login loop hell. Long story short, I don't remember how I did it, maybe I got access to a browser that was still logged into my GitHub account and I deleted my account, with 7 years worth of data and work, without hesitation. Never felt better. Not going to put my personal repositories there ever again. Come to think about it... The only thing left to relieve myself of Microsoft burdens is to move my OneDrive data to another thing, maybe an HD, and move my most critical accounts tied to MS to another provider. Now that will feel extremely good.
