What's going on with office.com / web apps?
I'm aware that Microsoft had already chosen to upend usability once by changing office.com into š”m365.cloud.microsoftš” and make accessing web apps more difficult.
This week I found they're hidding applications even further by burying them at the bottom of the page behind another menu - even when "pinned".
Below are two screenshots of the š”m365.cloud.microsoftš” portal from different accounts that were created on the same day and accessed from the same computer and web browser via admin priveledges. I have observed this discrepency more than once with various accounts.
Can someone explain the rational for Microsoft continuing to further bury office applications from users?
Am I unaware of a new portal to access the Office applications our users rely upon every day?

They simply want to shove Copilot down your throat, there is no real justification or rationale for what they have been doing. I'd suggest using OneDrive as the start page if your daily tasks are centered on documents, or just relying on the "waffle" menu on any of the "regular" M365 pages.
