Obligitory “I have to use it for my job,” so let’s commiserate.
It’s the worst program in all of the Office Suite. MS wrote the goddamn OS and email client, but for some reason if I have two instances open for two different inboxes and try to pull one up on the taskbar, the wrong instance will pull up every single time without fail.
My runner-up complaint is how when I use the search bar, sometimes it’ll forget what I’m doing and when I hit enter it’ll open some email instead of executing the search.
Every update makes it worse, so what drives you crazy?
It’s another Electron app now. At least “New Outlook” is.
This. You have to load a whole ******* web renderer context so that developers can more easily add “features” like emojis and animated gifs to a ******* mail client. Same thing with Teams.
It’s all so woefully wasteful, slow, painful. But it’s OK, we now have loads of RAM, fast SSDs, multi-core multi-thread ultra-fast CPUs anyway, and gifs really are a must-have in modern corporate communication.
Just get out of my lawn.
Imagine a world where simple old Thunderbird became the corporate standard. No bullshit, just you, the keyboard, and the blank slate of plain text email.
The fucking thing cannot search. I like to keep my email as conversation mode, but regardless if I get an attachment or I can remember some of the words in the email I would search for it and maybe 10% of the time I would find it.
It’s incredibly frustrating how useless the search function is.
The search function is useless
Outlook always forces me to categorize like it’s 2005. I’ve got two dozens folders because shit is unfindable.
The search function doesn’t find anything.
It actually finds LOTS of things, except what you’re actually want
