Sure seems like all this fancy Copilot coding help they have would've helped develop a better email client.

- delusional 4mo agoIt is. Classic outlook didn't intermingle ads into your inbox. That feature alone makes new outlook much better. Written on my windows phone 7 series 7 - Satya Nadella
- stackskipton 4mo agoDepending on if you have Microsoft365, you don't get ads either. It's not ads, it's fact that browsers are still not native performance to Win32 application. However, companies hate maintaining multiple applications (Win32/MacOS) and Sysadmin at companies hate maintaining Win32 Applications as well so everyone starts building WebView2.
- wolvoleo 4mo agoI do get ads. I constantly get notified about copilot features and whether I've used them 'enough'. This is done by my employer but the "adoption" team at Microsoft provide the tools to do this monitoring and advertising, and they even provide the emails they send me verbatim. I have some stuff to do with the organisation around that. God I hate those guys, they are trained to be literal shills, corporate puppies. Completely brainwashed.
- sznio 4mo agoI think it really could. You can vibe-code efficient software, if you care. Microsoft's problems are organizational. A developer can't actually do shit correctly when constantly being pushed to deliver more.
- soco 4mo agoThe "new" Outlook is older than Copilot, so we can't blame the AI here. Don't take this as defense of the new Outlook - I hate it with the same passion.
