Decided to give outlook a try cause of good integration on Windows. Uninstalled it the second I saw an ad on my inbox. it even shows up as regular mail and you wouldn't know it is an ad unless you look closely at the small Ad sign at the corner.

Also the new version, which might be beta still, just sends you to a web browser to do shit in. If I wanted to open emails in a web browser in the first place then I'd do that.

I mean, I’m fairly sure the new client is a web wrapper, either electron or some alternative since the actual application has parity with the web version (I use it at work). If it is redirecting you to an actual browser there’s likely something wrong with your configuration.

Since I use the enterprise version there’s no ads whatsoever. I don’t find it particularly good but it’s decent enough.

It is. Most new Microsoft apps are web apps. Though they're ditching electron for some better web wrappers.

They're also beginning the process of passing 365/Enterprise Outlook for this new watered down Outlook. Enterprise users are obviously pissed to see "Try the new outlook!" hovering over their regular outlook like a cloud of doom.

The outlook subreddit made a gigantic list of feature imparity. Microsoft has made some feature progress since then in preview. But it'll suck when they actually release it I'm sure.
