Microsoft is killing its consumer products by putting ads everywhere. Today's example: Outlook

Microsoft: why aren't people using outlook .com instead of gmail? Also Microsoft: put ads in the Outlook mobile client:

Pathetic...

Gmail too has ads. Free is not sustainable, someone has to pay.

Microsoft πx OP Apr 14

"Free is not sustainable, someone has to pay" is the kind of short-sighted mindset that is killing user experiences nowadays. Have you ever heard about having appealing and free products only for funnelling users into your ecosystem, and monetizing from them in other ways?

Last I checked, Gmail was using my Gmail and my sms on Android to put these ads since past 10 years and you were apparently on this vacation in Hawaii

Another dumb post. Everything about Microsoft is bad to you. Did you even check other email providers before you made this post?
