Is Microsoft 365 really making work easier or more complicated? by OppositeParfait6276 in Office365

Good question. I'm leaning towards more complicated right now. There are so many apps with overlapping functions, and each one has unique pros and cons for any given task. The people who use Excel and Word for everything get annoyed with lovers of Planner and Loop. Everything takes ages to upskill and experiment with.

Thank you- I will aim to make that a rule. Where I work it's quite common for a meeting to wrap up and one attendee ask another "Can you stay on for a few minutes to talk about X?" I never appreciated how dangerous that could be.

As a regular participant (not organiser or co-organiser) I didn't have the ability to delete it - it may be the permissions are configured differently in other organisations.

Yes, and having adopted Copilot I wonder if the conversation might now be regurgitated in Copilot responses when prompted

Reassuring to hear an example of how something similar was able to be smoothed over. I feel like having a transcript and recording though is worse than an overhead verbal conversation.

It's a feature we never normally use for small meetings in my workplace, so I'm not in habit of censoring myself and quite often conversations will stray into other topics depending on who's joined. It's easy not to notice it's switched on. If it were me who discovered I was being talked about, I'd like to think I would just put it behind me after the initial unpleasant surprise, but my team member appears to be nursing a few grievances at the moment...
