Bring on the downvotes, but: When it comes to tools like computers, convenience is synonymous with productivity. People aren't unreasonably demanding to have their hands held, they want to get stuff done. We need to stop acting like ~~convenience~~ productivity is just one of many concerns. It is the primary concern.
Freedom is nice but to most people it's only important if it helps us do the things we want to do.
I find dealing with Micros~1 a giant pain in the ass. It's always getting in the way of productivity with pointless rearranging of menus all the time, constantly trying to get me to use One Drive, shoving AI into every corner of everything.
I'm trying to make a spreadsheet to figure out and share budgets, instead I'm spending my time hunting for that menu that disappeared and figuring out how to disable copilot because I'm legally not allowed to share client data with third parties.
I see what you did there. 😆
