Nobody at MSFT talks to their counterparts. I cringe every I have to copy and paste between Teams, Outlook and OneNote. There have to be internal customers there with the same problems.

One that threw me for a loop recently was the spell check dictionary and suggestions.

Mess up in Outlook, you right click and it gives a couple suggestions. It'll call out the typo right after you finish the word.

Mess up in Teams? It'll wait until you finish the next word (charitably, giving you a second to figure it out?) then will suggest a different word than Outlook would.

It seems like they are long past the days of a CEO being able to say “Make this stuff work together.”

I’m still impressed with their renewal as a company. Rare for a stagnant tech firm to come back.
