tl;dr:

> Starting November 30, 2023, Microsoft 365 Personal or Microsoft 365 Family subscribers will no longer be able to create a new personalized email address associated with their Outlook.com mailbox.

> Starting February 1, 2023, cloud storage used across Microsoft 365 apps and services will include Outlook.com attachments data and OneDrive data. All data will continue to be protected with Microsoft’s comprehensive set of security features.

Odd product evolution, to be sure. Taking away custom email addresses.. why?



I just received an official email about these changes (with glaring copy-paste typos, no less!) that begins with this gem:

> Microsoft is committed to improving your Microsoft 365 subscription

Ironically, this only impacts people who have bought into Outlook instead of, say, remaining on Gmail.
