    My biggest problem with Microsoft 365 is that it obstinately keeps using localized keyboard shortcuts, so if you’re an non-English speaker, the usual English shortcuts like Ctrl+f don’t fucking work.

      I’m with you, drives me nuts that it is basically a guessing game on whether the shortcut for bolding the font is either Ctrl-B or Ctrl-G (gras, bold in French) and it varies by software, region, time of the day…

        Plus, previous versions had a shortcut which I memorized despite it being stupid. Now they changed it.

      Hey, wanna know something even more awful?
      Excel function names are localized.

        Not just the function names, since comma and dot are used as decimal separator so semicolons replace commas between function arguments in my locale.
