Outlook (newest)(new)

[-] LucidNightmare@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago

Outlook (New) is such garbage. Web app, and doesn’t support plugins. Less functionality over all. Pathetic.

[-] MangoPenguin 9 points 1 year ago

IIRC it also stores your account password server side and stores your emails there too, it's literally just webmail.

New outlook is less functional but much better UI design (it's just outlook web access after all). Outlook hasn't changed in forever because so many corporate high ups use it and think they know how it works. They always respond to emails that are already answered because they didn't see the newer reply in their inbox. I suspect this resistance is why it's a totally separate program to the old outlook. Yes, there are settings to group threads in outlook, but the interface is still pretty unintuitive and the vast majority of these users don't change their default settings anyway. In my experience the terrible defaults create more problems than outlook solves. And the server syncing can be really slow at times. Personally, I'm very happy that MS is finally showing some interest to modernize outlook, the more people who use it the easier my job will get.

Also ya the name is stupid. Teams (New) gets me the most. Idk who possibly thought this naming scheme was a good idea.

"fam check this code I just yeeted out"

[-] henfredemars@infosec.pub 34 points 1 year ago

It’s even funnier when something like this happens to me and our IT guy goes I don’t remember installing that version…

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 32 points 1 year ago

Probably didn't, it's microsofts dumb roll out of their updated with functionality removed deployment

[-] Dhs92@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago

Took them almost a year to add the ability to open .eml files in the new client.

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 year ago

That's because the new one is just the existing web app that loads inside an Edge instance so they were basically starting from scratch. I realized that when I discovered I couldn't open the new version on my laptop that I had uninstalled Edge from.

Oh, and MS is killing the old version. Joy.

[-] xmunk@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 year ago

This is such a perfect demonstration of how useless Microsoft's ecosystem is. It's better than being forced to work in an Apple exclusive environment but "we're a windows shop" is one of the biggest red flags an employer can have.

[-] AllOutOfBubbleGum@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

We still use on-prem Exchange with Microsoft Office at work, and it's really becoming a problem. Microsoft already auto adds shortcuts for 365 (which we don't use and doesn't work with our setup), and the "Mail" app (which also doesn't work with out setup), and now I have to explain to people to use the regularly titled Outlook icon and not the "Outlook (new)" icon (which again, won't work with our setup).

Stop calling out my commit messages... I swear "fixed bug x (for real this time)(ok now it should be fixed) added feature y" is a valid commit message scheme.

[-] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 4 points 1 year ago

If you want to fix it take a look at the conventional git commits standard. No need to read a huge document it says what to do quickly on the website.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'd rather add more Jira stories.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 1 year ago

Are you an employee at Valve? lol

[-] Sparky 4 points 1 year ago

Tbh i think Microsoft has a better track record of breaking, fixing and then un-fixing their software

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 11 points 1 year ago

Maybe; but Valve has plenty of patch notes that say "X fixed," but it's not actually fixed and then the next update says "X fixed. No really this time." lol

[-] telllos@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Can New outlook even open eml?? I remember it couldn't just a few months ago.

[-] Edlak@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It now can but not always. Still easier to point the default app to old outlook.

[-] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

An email client that can't open email files? Hmmmmmm.

Is this something to do with the fact it's routing all emails via Microsoft servers?

I am not a developer

[-] mlg@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Microsoft having 4 tabs for howtos depending on outlook version sums this up lol

As the saying goes, there's only two hard problems in IT:

Caching, naming things, and off by one errors.

For whatever reason, this one makes me very angry.

Xbox 1 > x360 > xbone > xbonex > xbsx

The XBox One X, or the X.B.O.X. for short.
