hjk10156963yOnly disagree on outlook.
It uses word to compose html messages.
Strips so much html/css rendering that writing html mails that includes outlook support is an art. It's like having your website render on ie6.
Stops syncing as the sudden all you miss emails until you notice. Have to many other gripes with it to mention. -
I was done with Microsoft.
But then they brought VS Code, acquired NPM & Github and did all those lovely things to them.
Excel is hands-down the best spreadsheet software, with you on that -
@prodigy214 the only reason I am not entirely moving to Google ecosystem is I am held back with Office.
Google office suite does not work offline and their spreadsheet is pathetic.
Otherwise, I'd totally be moving to Linux and survive off Google ecosystem via browser.
Linux doesn't support Drive sync though and I have mentioned it time and again here. -
@prodigy214 nah! I only liked Apple till the time Steve was at the helm.
After that, the company took unexpected turns. They are evil but they not evil evil like Google. And at the same time they are good but just very different.
The entry and exit barrier for their ecosystem is quite high too. -
@prodigy214 entry barriers are cost, data migration, and learning the entire UX.
And also, if I use an Android phone with a Mac, the compatibility will be fucked (and that's my assumption).
Exit, would be their subscription pricing model. That part is super economical as compared to others. And also, compatibility with outer world once inside the Apple world.

I finally got the clarity on my relationship.
Atleast I think I did.
I am officially done with Microsoft. I mean the only useful and sensible products left are Outlook and Excel.
Funnily both the products have hit their maturity stage and now MS is trying to bloat them. But still to a reasonable extent.
What other MS products are worth touching? Wait.. I legit can't think of any now.
Next on tagret, Google and Apple. Lol
Perhaps only Apple product I ever want to interact with will be (future tense) Apple Music (well because lossless and the fact that that the product is the reason for existence of the company).
NGL Steve had the right vision on Music. They tagged things right in their iTunes catalogue. But then MTV happened.
And now Spotify is the new MTV. Fuck me in ass someone.
So only Google? Well I have already sold my soul to them. What's more remaining?
