This kind of random shit with Microsoft just blows my mind.

Google is just as bad. Look at their messaging apps. Is it Duo? No that name died and was merged into Google Meet. However, old Google Meet is....uh....Google Meet Classic? I think? And then there is/was Google Voice, Allo, Google Talk.......

And people wonder why I just use and donate to apps like Signal.

Google and messaging app is whole story on its own.

Although MS isn't that great with messaging either. There was MSN Messenger, Windows Live Messenger, various Skype services and finally MS Teams.

And feels like all of them were bloated and badly made.
