Today, we disclosed plans for Microsoft Lists (blog with full details) during day one of Build 2020.
We want to share the news and highlight how the SharePoint lists you know, and love, evolve....

There is a bug in the search function in lists.microsoft.com, where clicking on a search result opens the result in a new "Sharepoint" window rather than in a "Lists" branded window. The search procedure is documented https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/search-in-a-list-ec2c83f5-62a4-48f0-9614-30738d820ec3, but it fails to mention this poor functionality.
This is pathetic functionality and is very confusing for end users. The Lists / Sharepoint UI constantly changes depending on the number of results being returned, and sometimes you end up on a screen that appears like it is Sharepoint 2010!
Why is this product still so unfinished when it was building upon a product you already had? Almost a year later and still no promised Android Lists app either.
Because of the slowness and limitations of Microsoft Lists, my company is now considering a move to AirTable, which I would love to discourage, but in it's current state Microsoft Lists doesn't cut it.
