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?

Because Software as a service is such a lovely thing (not for the user). Every day a new experience!

    I just found a pattern. Monday, where it was showing up 1 hour earlier, I was connected to my M365 Cloud PC via my home Macbook. Then, the appt (only this one) showed up wrong.

    Yesterday, I was using that same Cloud PC from my work (Windows-)laptop and the appt showed up at the correct time.

    Today, I’m using the exact same Cloud PC - without rebooting - from my Macbook again and Outlook shows it wrong again.

    So, that virtual machine that’s called Cloud PC does something different depending on the system you’re connecting from. How stupid is that?
