    Yeah, tbh I was surprised several years ago when I found out it was still being updated and included with 365, since they basically don’t do anything to push people to use it. I still can’t believe they aren’t allowing people on 365 to use it unsupported after they drop support or at least release a good converter to convert them to .docx or .pptx - I can imagine there’s plenty of businesses on office 365 that either: will forget that an important document is in publisher format or will completely fail to take any action to convert/migrate their publisher documents and will be scrabbling to try and replace/convert them.

    I remember using publisher a lot in school in the 2000s because it was better for doing layout stuff for posters, etc. than word or PowerPoint were at the time. Nowadays I’d just use word or maybe PowerPoint (if I’m using MS office for it).
