this is also why they gutted the extension ecosystem and followed the chrome webapi direction

i presume outlook.com uses the same backend/ui as the office365 exchange-online owa web version? if so, we have that for our company and yeah it's good and so much better than gmail, especially after the last gmail ui update (loving ugh). i think my issues with is that search is funky and unreliable sometimes pulling up results that have seemingly nothing to do with what i searched for, and that it does stupid nested "conversations" by default instead of leaving everything individualized.

still mostly use desktop outlook but the web access is pretty nice on laptops or whatever and seems to have decent performance.

Outlook itself is the single shittiest computer program I use, which is saying a lot, so I'm not touching anything with the brand on it unless I'm literally being paid to do it.

i actually like outlook, when configured to be in compact mode and some ui bloat off, it's super quick to open/close, does searches super quick and reliably, and just feels snappy and responsive without bloat that typically infests poo poo like that.

the shittiest computer program i use are weird little niche civil engineering programs from like the 90s or early 2000s.

also microsoft project, holy god that is probably the worst program i use that is still somehow updated but basically lovely as it was 20 years ago and super buggy, will randomly change results and come up with entirely different results by just re-entering the exact same number for earned value analysis or whatever.

it's loving embarrassing that this garbage is somehow industry standard with absolute no competition at all, when it should be a piss easy type of program to make. and yet so loving garbage that it can't even reliably give you numbers to trust and will go off the handle with processes behaving entirely differently by just re-entering something. and with so limited options to do basic things like custom work gaps/breaks in schedule, options to consider work and actual work differently, resource loading, locking in tuneable baseline to scheduling, whatever.

can�t wait for a major browser to introduce a �click-to-run-scripts� mode and turn it on by default

or maybe even just put up a panel that says a web page is using a deprecated scripting system and telling you to ask the developer for an app

sorry but google is def gunna kill off IMAP/POP3 access at some point requiring use of GMAIL Suite android/ios apps, or desktop app which is just chrome bookmarked to gmail.com. hell they've already making it not easy so it's not a far step to see it completely gone. they definitely don't want you using anything but the webmail.

i.e. email only

running 2016. 2010 was maybe slightly better because I don't think anything new UI or feature-wise wise is useful, but they felt about exactly the same and I don't run into any issues or performance when i upgraded. But 2016 has much much better integration with office365 exchange online services. but yeah we're using it as an exchange environment.
