"log in" and "sign up" buttons

This is is why you should use incognito/InPrivate mode when using Microsoft sites. It will always give the full login prompt.
The real frustrating thing is when you have a personal account and a work account under the same email address... Separating those two is a massive pain.
I ended up using chrome and a bunch of profiles. My taskbar has now five different chrome icons, each with a different profile, all to keep the different systems and logins for the different clients separate.

Can you link to these? Always looking for alternatives.

- Small web needs to be found. Try looking around Neocities to start off.
- For Gemini and Gopher, you need a special browser. This is the one I prefer: https://gmi.skyjake.fi/lagrange/

Could be that the priority is to get more sign ups or that once signed in, customers typically stay signed in
wrote last edited by [email protected]I’m guessing it’s business that are optimizing for number of signups instead of returning users. Which is short sighted and stupid.

Too bad I don't give a shit. I'm not downloading an app just so i can pay my water bill
An app is the only formal written communication method I have with my apartment complex. And it's a shit app. I sent my 60 days move out notice to "management" on their app and the message went and sat in someone's inbox who no longer works there. Just give me a damn team email or something. Luckily that screw up was their fault and didn't impact my move out.

this is a rant about microsoft
how on the fucking earth are you the biggest company and have hands down the worst login imaginable. you know for a fact people have multiple accounts for your platform, it's incredibly common to have a work specific micorosoft account after all. AND YET you lock in a specific email for login??? and you don't even put a bloody "i'd like to log in with a different email"???? oh there's a "use a different login method" button it's all okay right? wrong that button still doesn't let you change the login email! but now you can log in with a code sent to it :).
what if that """""convenience"""" you're trying to give people by checks notes, not including an incredibly common button that takes you to the default login page without a specific email baked into it, is actually an impossible pain in the ass? what if that email is someone else's and then just hit the "remember me" out of habit? go fuck yourself :). go into the browser setting and manually delete the cookies or if you can't or don't know how to do that then just fuck yourself
not to even fucking mention how if you try to log into teams desktop client app that info is going to get fucking applied to the entire windows account??? without asking about it clearly either it just fucking does that! it just fucking links to your local account instsntly
who asked for that microsoft? what deranged motherfucker in your board of directors came in high off his tits and uttered the cursed phrases needed for those feature to fucking exist?
and is that guy the only one allowed to speak? the only who's vocabulary extends past "great idea! let's do that"?
how is your user account management worse and more annoying than any virus i had?
i literally just needed to log in to someone's account once, for an hour, to substitute for them in one call. and that silly little action has taken fucking hours to undo, and all done with force "how to delete someone else's email from microsoft login"? delete your fucking cookies or team cache. "how to unlink a microsoft account from windows"? don't forget to input your pc password! dw about how we didn't ask for it when we just linked it to your local account, you need it now
oh and unlinking isn't removing, you gotta do that one too!there has been genuinely nothing else in the past decade that has made me more frustrated, more fucking seething with anger, than dealing with the fallout of needing to use someone else's microsoft account for an hour
wrote last edited by [email protected]My favourite part of Microsoft login experience:
Me: "Hi, I'd like to set up 2FA."
MS: "Sure, you can use Microsoft Authenticator on Android."
Me: "A separate app? (Grumble) Okay then."(A few years go by. I get asked to do 2FA absolutely zero times.)
Me: "...Damn, this 2FA settings page is hard to find. What happened to the app? It's no longer in Google Play."
MS: "What app?"
Me: "I believe it was called Microsoft Authenticator?"
MS: "Oh that app! It's long obsolete. Don't worry about it. You can now just use your favourite TOTP app."
Me: "Sweet! Let's set up Aegis."(Several years go by and Microsoft still hasn't asked me to use 2FA for any fucking thing)
