I just need to complain to people that get it.

How in the hell does W11 not have a basic text replacement function. You need to install powertoys if you want something that smartphones have been doing for ages. All I want is to type a few characters that automatically becomes my long work email. And Microsoft says fuck you if you want this for accessibility.

At least every day at work makes me appreciate Linux at home more.

When shitnceases to function well at its core purpose, that's when you know they've jumped the shark.

I use Excel for work and it CONSTANTLY fucks up or does something aggravating that makes me waste time.

Sometimes it's as simple as saving. Because the save point is not on OneDrive (OHNOES MS), it will tell me the file is ready only and I have to save it as a copy.

Like, fuck you, I just fucking made this work book.

And sometimes when I try to open a second workbook, it will stall until I click on the File tab, on the open workbook. Then bam, it will open up.

It constantly does shit I don't want it to and have to chase down how to shut it off. The "smart select" should be titled "THAT'S NOT WHAT I FUCKING WANTED!" select.

    Is it possible you were just entering information into a cell in the open workbook and didn't click enter or out of the cell? The only time Excel does that to me is due to the above. If so you don't have to click file but you do need to finish editing the cell value, either by clicking a different place in the worksheet hitting enter or clicking the menu like the file tab.
