Some clouds are worth yelling at

Why?

Why is every company right now making it impossible to understand what their app does?

I swear to fucking god, I’ve been looking for SAAS products at work to fill a role, they’re all branded as AI and not what the companies actually fucking do.

Office has like a 40 year plus reputation as THE office suite. What the fuck us copilot? That cheap knockoff OpenAI they debuted before it was really?

Copile of shit

Damn, our customers don't use copilot, but we promised to reach 50% usage in 2026...

That's it... Rename the whole thing to copilot and we achieve our goal!

Ok so there are 3 microsoft products called copilot now. Surely this won't confuse anyone

My LibreOffice is still called LibreOffice.

Hey there, laptop, looks like you’re going to be a linux machine now.

Why do I feel 2026 is gonna be a fucking nightmare…?

You cannot make this shit up.

Welp... Time to bring back this ol' meme.

Why couldn't they just stick with Office... It's 100% explanatory, short, and to the point.

365 never made sense to me. Is it supposed to represent the year? Like available 24/7 but instead it's there for you 365 days of the year? And if that's the case why the fuck would I care? It's software, of course it's available to me whenever I want. It's not a 7/11 hotdog rotisserie.

Don't confuse it with Microsoft 365 or Microsoft Copilot app ! 😂

It's been named "Microsoft Office" since 1990. Way to piss 35 years of brand recognition up a wall.

How drunk are these guys?

Microsoft is reporting over 600 MILLION user growth on copilot, basically overnight! Wow, very impressive Mr Nadella. You've truly pushed AI adoption forward. Someone get this man a bonus!

They are trying so fucking hard, it’s so sad. Especially when everyone saw that report of them slashing AI related metrics because nobody is fucking using it.

I can’t wait to build my new PC and install Linux. Cannot wait.

Excel --> Copilot Calculate (356) App

Word --> Copilot 365 Live Notepad

Outlook --> Team 365 Share Copilot App

PowerPoint --> Visual Copilot App Live

Visio --> untouched

Office is the last good branding Microsoft have and they're just getting rid of it, I can't believe it

We’re…never going to say any of that. It’s Microsoft 365, or 365 for short. Even that sounds stupid. Office is what people understand, 365 always requires explaining.

MS is so exhausting.

-sigh- time to start getting accustomed to libre office.

“Let’s take the most recognizable software package name and make it something totally divorced from what the software is supposed to be for.”

There are probably people for whom Microsoft Office is the only desktop software that they use. There are probably many people in procurement that are going to scratch their heads and think twice about signing off on something that sounds like a flight simulator.

This is an opportunity for alternate office suites.

C Suite is in a cult.

Tons of Microsoft senior engineers have been resigning over this kinda shit.

Not getting fired or laid off, though that's happening too... resigning.

Bill Gates himself has expressed significant dissapointment with where the company has gone and is going, thinks AI needs to be optional, its clearly not ready.

... Everyone hates this other than C Suite, who are either psychotically delusional, in an actual AI worshipping cult (you'd be surprised how many tech high ups are in one), or, they simply hate us and want us to die, want to be the overlords of whatever is left after they basically destroy modern civilization.

Don’t really care what they call it, I’m not paying a subscription for software or running anything in the cloud that could just as well run locally. The fact that there are decent open source alternatives means they can do all the dumb shit they want and we don’t have to care.

Cope alot.

Microslop

what the fuck...

so AI psychosis goes both ways it seems

So all of the Microsoft 365 users become instantly AI users? Microsoft gonna report after months that AI users surged the first months of 2026, stocks gonna go up, shareholders happy.

Using any bloatsoft product is a joke at this point, unless your job or school forces you to do so

Will they rename Windows (Winslop) to "CopilotOS"? If yes, I'll nuke Windows 10 (!) from my SSD, then replace it with Manjaro or some similar simplified Arch derivative, as my main OS.

The other day, my mother approached me about Office alternatives. Before she retired, she daily drove Office, but feels like it's changed so much that learning a new program isn't any more friction than keeping up with AI bullshit.

I really like libreoffice honestly. In my job I have to use docs but I find myself copying from libre office most of the time. Prior to that, I used to create all my visuals with office and do my graphs in excel. So I’ve tried a few different ways to do things. Libre reminds me of old school products and I kind of like that. Plus it does what I want with shapes. Which is nice when I need to make visuals. I still use excel though, for now.

Boy, that company should probably fire the CEO, what with him forcing it to commit suicide.

"Jerry, could you come into my 365 copilot?" - some boss at Microsoft probably.

Slop.

Microslop

MS every single day: ooohooh! We got some great news, you’re gonna love this!!

Actual people: lemme gues it’s more AI bs?

Ms: more AI bs!

Damn, guess Libre Office is the only office app now

Preview of tickets incoming in the next days:

“Do I have Copilot included?” “Is it the same as Copilot in Word?” “Do I need an extra license?” "Where is the Office app?" "Can you install Microsoft Office for me?"
