IT guy here, I can sort of accept Windows 11 from a user’s perspective, but the new Outlook is absolutely unforgivable.

Microsoft built their dominance on Office, not Windows, specifically, Excel and Outlook.
Sadly almost every company runs Exchange and there is a lot of companies that either already run 365 or are migrating to it.
