Do people actually choose to use Outlook if they're not already forced to use Exchange/Office365, usually for work?

In my experience, it's hands down the worst e-mail client I've ever used. I only have it on my work PC because my employer uses Office 365. It never even crossed my mind to try to use it for my personal e-mailing needs.

I do agree, however, that companies that decide to trust MS don't care one bit about their scandalous practices. I don't even think it's as much of an actual choice as a cop-out, as in "everybody uses microsoft", so they rarely actually ponder the decision.

Outlook New gets installed by default on Windows 11. Of course people gonna use it. Even if they just trial it, their data is gone. A Anti-Virus should stop the software from running. But that will never happen.

> "everybody uses microsoft", so they rarely actually ponder the decision.

Exactly. That is my main argument against PantaloonFlames's claim "They have legitimate revenue at stake. If they betray trust on such a scale, and we find out, they'll be out of business."

At a certain scale nothing matters anymore! You can Bluescreen half the planet and still be in business.

What do you recommend businesses use instead?
