Quick vent. My job introduced OneDrive and cloud shit through Microsoft. Yeah. I still have to tell my computer to save on itself. I'm not using OneDrive.
I hear my coworkers bitch about it all the time. It's not syncing. I can't save or change this or that. I can't find it when I'm trying to open it. Why is this green or yellow? What's up with this check? They always ask me for help because I'm the younger one that knows more about computers. I respond that I don't do cloud shit. I want to know where my info is, but they keep on wanting me to figure it out for them.
I guess cloud computing is my old man yelling at clouds line.
I just disable it on system boot. Company hates that I'm not using OneDrive...
I'll throw crap in SharePoint, but I also won't use that dogshit 'service' either.
I don't want people touching my reports. It's my shit. View only.
I absolutely hate OneDrive and similarly to you would go out of my way to save on my device for work. We had to upgrade to win11 recently and now all my documents, pictures, etc automatically redirect to OneDrive.... :| this is an "improvement" according to them.
Also the amount of copilot that's being pushed on us. I know AI can do lots of things but holy God let me read my own fucking emails.
Not necessarily. Cloud storage is great for off-site backups and collaborative working on projects, but Onedrive, 365 and the rest of the Microsoft stuff is the problem. It's clunky, overloaded and generally a pain in the ass to manage. It is successful mostly because everyone already works with Microsoft stuff, especially their office suite, and Microsoft makes it really annoying (and in some places difficult) to go around it.
At my last job I had to implement and manage a lot of 365 and Sharepoint and I find my private Nextcloud more comfortable (and there are hosters who offer Nextcloud as a partially managed service so that in a company environment you'd mostly just need to administer users and small, easy stuff). If for usability alone I'd put Google's cloud services and collaborative office environment before Microsoft's (they're still both shitty megacorps and I recommend staying away from both, though).
