Your post title is hurting my brain
Changing the original headline of an article into semi-gibberish? That’s a downvote.
I’m pretty heavily in favour of the Microsoft 365 platform, but loop has not found a spot in my toolkit at this point. I’d rather just use OneNote.
I get that these tools are supposed to make collaboration easier, but it really doesn’t add much in my opinion.

That’s not a sentence I ever expected to read, I’m curious as to what makes it heavily favourable in your opinion?
I think most of the sentiment I’ve seen towards it before ranges from indifference to apoplectic rage
While there are some frustrating parts I’ve found that it gets the job done reasonably well and integrates well across the products. I’m a power user so I can often find workarounds for even the things that bother me. Teams communicates well, sharepoint stores the files for my group just fine, office does what it always does, then I get these other useful tools for forms, databases, video sharing, etc.
I think the biggest problem for most people is that they never received adequate training. I trained myself so I skipped that limitation.
It will be as good as Teams …
This is the best summary I could come up with:
A new startup is targeting the lucrative workplace productivity space with an open source approach to project and knowledge management — and it has received backing from a who’s who of investors from across the technology spectrum.
AppFlowy, as the company is called, has raised $6.4 million in funding from a slew of renowned founders, including Matt Mullenweg (Automattic); Steve Chen (YouTube); Tom Preston-Werner (GitHub); Bob Young (Red Hat) and Amr Awadallah (Cloudera).
Helping the workforce be more efficient is big business, evidenced by the likes of Notion hitting a lofty $10 billion valuation off the back of remote work-driven demand for collaboration software.
However, AppFlowy’s promise is all about control and customizability, allowing companies to tailor their workspace with modular building blocks that can be fine-tuned for specific use cases.
“Most proprietary collaboration workplace tools share a major limitation — their customers find it too hard or too expensive to have 100% control of their data,” co-founder and CEO Annie Anqi Wang said in a blog post.
“We plan to adopt a freemium model for AppFlowy Cloud, which means that certain premium features will not be included in the free tier,” Wang said.
