If, like me, you have a Microsoft 365 subscription that is going to renew soon:
- Congrats on being just a big-ass weirdo for Microsoft Excel, I see you!
- If you’re not going to be using Microsoft’s Copilot AI features, you might wanna go manually downgrade to Microsoft 365 Classic, because otherwise they’re going to charge you more for bullshit you might not want.
There’s instructions on how to do that here — as a fun side note, I had my billing set up through PayPal, so I first had to switch to credit card billing, then go through these instructions in order to get access to the Classic plan, which was super-annoying but now I don’t have robots looking through my Very Personal Spreadsheets, so that’s nice!1
- I mean, what spreadsheet is more personal than “These are the Funko Pops I have, please do not buy them again, you do not need another Peter Venkman Pop for crying out loud” ↩︎
