My favourite part of Microsoft login experience:

Me: "Hi, I'd like to set up 2FA."
MS: "Sure, you can use Microsoft Authenticator on Android."
Me: "A separate app? (Grumble) Okay then."

(A few years go by. I get asked to do 2FA absolutely zero times.)

Me: "...Damn, this 2FA settings page is hard to find. What happened to the app? It's no longer in Google Play."
MS: "What app?"
Me: "I believe it was called Microsoft Authenticator?"
MS: "Oh that app! It's long obsolete. Don't worry about it. You can now just use your favourite TOTP app."
Me: "Sweet! Let's set up Aegis."

(Several years go by and Microsoft still hasn't asked me to use 2FA for any fucking thing)
