Why is office.com showing a copilot chatbot? Who made this decision?
Since Microslop doesn't release native linux version of Office applications (that I must use for work) the few times I have to use it I resort to the online version. After some months I had to use it again and I was greeted by Copilot without any obvious way to access Excel on office.com... Why? How do I access the old site which showed the recently opened documents?
Searching online it seems like this is a thing since some time, people hate it yet they don't want to fix it. If I want to use Copilot (no, I do not ever want to, especially if it is forced on me this way) then I'll specifically open that website, when I need office tools I need those, not a chatbot.
And this is on top of their shitty SSO system that always logs me out from every app, Teams is broken as well, Outlook is by far the worst email client now - I question the legitimacy of this company for real.
On a positive note it also bugs our Tech Lead so much that finally the company is looking into different solutions to move completely away from Microslop.
