I haven't used Windows nor Office for so long I have no idea what half of those icons are for. Word stopped being great around 2007 when the ribbon was introduced. Before then, it had an amazing UI, the right amount of features and allowed you to do your work. N? T? Turquoise P?

Now, wow. It blows my mind people put up with all that.

Lucky you, you don't have to deal with the fucking T.

The web version is unbelievably shit.

I've watched a millennial uni student dick about with his laptop trying to find where tf his files are, not knowing the difference between the cloud and his local computer. University level.

I think all web software is unbelievably shit. The web is for porn, not software.

A fellow fan of office 2003! The ribbon was a terrible change and it has only gone downhill from there.

MS used to be at the forefront of UI, but now? You may be interested in: https://github.com/pi0/clippyjs
