>Many a frustrated user has sworn they'll launch Microsoft Outlook into space, but NASA has actually done it – on a journey around the Moon, where it's now causing problems for astronauts. The astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft currently circling the Earth are taking care of a bunch of housekeepign tasks, including getting their devices working. Judging by some space-to-ground communications with controllers at Houston, it isn't going well.

Do you know WHY it's like that? "New" Outlook is literally just a headless instance Edge running 365 OWA. It's a fucking web browser. That's why it can't access your network drives, that's why there's no extensions, that's why it needs to be online and treats every link as HTTPs. Because there's perilously few actual SOFTWARE developers at Microsoft anymore. It's all barely trained dime a dozen (and likely pajeet) "webdevs" who couldn't code their way out of a hello world tutorial.

I'm fairly certain Teams is the same way and the Office apps already are or will be made to be so as well.
