Is classic Outlook becoming worse and worse? (lemmy.world)

For a few years I'm noticing more and more weird and unexplainable behaviour in Outlook. We support mostly 365 Exchange Online clients on Windows workstations or RDS environments.

The amounts of unexplainable bullshit we face is staggering. Outlook not being able to open the folder set, weird MFA glitches, weird bugs in the UI and downright weird errors coming from nowhere is some of the stuff we face weekly.

Am I alone on this?

Yeah those com addins are usually the problem with outlook stability. Simply moving to modern addins improves Outlook classic significantly.

    There is no simply moving here sadly, the plugins simply aren't available. Hooray for vendor lock-ins.

    Have a similar issue in my industry. Microsoft went to a conference in my industry and straight up asked everyone there which vendor plugins are slowing down the transition and said they will be contacting those vendors directly.
