Say what you want about OpenOffice it doesn't experience 24h degradation because some idiot pushed vibe slop to production.

Not to defend Microsoft, but the thick-client Office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc) worked fine during the outage. Nobody couldn't use Excel because of this outage. Outlook worked fine too if you were connecting it to an on-premises Exchange instance.

This was an outage of a server-hosted database for email, not an outage of desktop application software.
