What are you talking about? It's horrible from a users perspective. I never know where I am saving anything

I only use Windows at work (because I have to). The thing that drives me fucking nuts, as an advanced computer user in general, is how God damned unintuitive the 365 Office,OneDrive, and File explorer integration is.

I have no idea where I am saving stuff half the time(or more accurately have to change it each time because the defaults are dumb). I don't want it in my OneDrive downloads folder or OneDrive documents folder. I want it in my fucking laptop download folder or local documents folder.

Then Teams is saving stuff in SharePoint in the background, permissions are annoying AF. At least they'll flag that a recipient of an email attachment or imbedded url doesn't have access. So that's nice I guess.

Oh, then sometimes I'm prompted to save a copy of a shared document, but that's different from "download a copy". If you save a copy it just makes a new shared copy for everyone in the SharePoint site.

I feel like a boomer when I work with MS now. Maybe it's all enterprise settings for where I work and maybe it's not MS's fault but hot damn I am so much less productive than if I just used Gsuite, only office, on Mac or .

Maybe I just need to spend a week taking training classes on these products. But who tf has time for that when you have your actual job to do. So I guess that really sums up Microsoft for me: it's in the way and slowing me down.
