This morning I was doing some configuration in a client’s Office 365 tenant when I saw this cute little guy this morning.
At first I was like “Huh – that’s new.” But then I got mad.
After years of not having meaningful error pages in O365, Microsoft gives us this cartoon animal instead of the error message. What a rip off! What product team approved this? You can’t tell me there is some UserVoice out there that said “Create non-fugly error pages” and everyone upvoted it three times. Some cute cartoon animal is not going to make my anger dissipate because an error occurred.
I believe this update is spiteful to all the developers and admins out there who have been grinding away in O365 for years and still do not have effective error pages.
