Why is Microsoft ending the use of Publisher. I use the stand alone software every day for projects that I print, cards, postcards, CD labels, etc. It makes me happy to use the software. It makes me very mad that Microsoft is forcing users to use software they do not like. I hate Office 365. I hate that you are no longer supporting Windows 10. I own MSFT Stock. I plan to sell all my shares this year. I never owned Tesla stock. I am sorry that I ever purchased Microsoft stock. Your company does not care about it's users. You constantly change software, which makes the learning curve to use your software a waste of my time. Today, I am making a birthday card for my daughter and got a notice that Microsoft is no longer supporting Publisher. This really upset me, and I will probably have problems sleeping tonight. Why can't your company think about the people that use your products everyday? Do to your business model, you have made it very expensive for Universities, Schools and Small Businesses to have to upgrade routinely software and operating systems. You should work to keep your users happy and productive in the work place. You get a 0 out of 10 for customer satisfaction.
