Why businesses continue to trust Microsoft I'll never quite understand. The number of breaches Microsoft has had overall the last 5 years is amazing. Compare that to what I believe is the ZERO breaches Google has had in the same time frame. Not that Google is to be trusted, but if anything of magnitude would have happened there it would have certainly leaked by now.

Cloud at this point is very hard to ignore. Internal IT team sizes shrinking, it's becoming harder running all of those business needs internally. Businesses will learn the hard way when they continue to put their trust in the cloud, especially Microsoft's. Some facets of IT are just too much work to bother with keep hosting internally. Exchange is a steaming pile of garbage. I managed it for years, so I can see why people cloud their email. Which I'm all for, because email is just a bitch to run in general. But use Gmail or something else. It's a night and day difference. I'm dreading the day my company decides that Microsoft is the better deal just because Office needs updating. Instead of keeping the status quo, spend the money training employees on alternatives and run as far as you can from Microsoft's hold.

Microsoft makes a lot of good products but keeping them secure is an after thought.

That's not entirely true. Telegram's one on one secret chat is end to end encrypted. As well as one on one voice and video calls. Group chats are not end to end encrypted.

Additionally Telegram does have an auto delete features built in for all of its chat types. So while I can't entirely rule out that Telegram could have a backup of a chat somewhere, you have a bit more piece of mind if you turn on the auto delete feature.

Yes they are dropping support. OP you'll need to install sunshine on your PC. Be advised that once you setup sunshine you'll have to remove your previous saved connection from moonlight. But once you do you only need to authorize by pin on tht first initial connection. I use it all the time never had to re-enter the pin. Even with game stream it was only once.

I'm in the camp that says you should really pay for premium. It's so worth the money. For every premium user that watches a video the creator gets a pretty good cut. Something like 55%. Blocking ads doesn't really hurt the creator too much. Your mainly just sticking it to Google. But if your someone who watches alot of YouTube consider premium, to help your favorite creators more. Especially you get Music included.

This is looking good. Kind of reminds me a bit of the Guardians of the Galaxy game. Hopefully its not a let down when it releases.

Nothing. I deleted my account already. It was a spit in the face of the third party developers. The official Reddit app is trash. They were lucky to have those third party apps. Cash grab because of the incoming recession. Meanwhile you're whole platform is based on user generated content. What a joke.
