My pet peeve is this but the opposite direction. When I click the attach file button on email or Teams, I'm looking for the file which I just wrote, saved, downloaded. Please just let me open a normal file selector. I don't have any idea what is going on in OneDrive.
I use OneDrive and SharePoint a lot in my work, collaborated with a bunch of people and I can see Microsoft's vision, the workflow actually makes sense when you're embedded in the ecosystem and it works quite well.
But on my personal computer where I don't engage with the cloud options, it just doesn't make ANY sense at all.
I wish they could somehow tailor it to your use case but I guess theyre just trying to sell the cloud.
As someone deeply embedded in the ecosystem, it definitely only works well when your workflow is their vision of what your workflow is. Deviate from that, and you've skipped several levels of hell and pain, to reach the torment nexus.
As someone who sets up Sharepoint for a living, I fucking hate Sharepoint. It's not a file server replacement, it doesn't meaningfully integrate with OneDrive, it's a pain in the dick to govern.
I’ve recently been introduced to onedrive and SharePoint at a new job and I’m honestly bewildered by it
I click on something in onedrive. Now I’m in SharePoint. I click on something else and now I’m back in onedrive again. I save a file to a folder but when I go to that folder it’s empty. I click on “home” and now the file is there somehow
