Microsoft demonstrates that renting Office is a bad idea

Microsoft Publisher will no longer be supported after October 2026:

"At Microsoft, we are dedicated to providing our customers with the tools they need to achieve what matters, in their work and life. In order to focus on new benefits, we occasionally remove features and products.

"In October 2026, Microsoft Publisher will reach its end of life. After that time, it will no longer be included in Microsoft 365 and existing on-premises suites will no longer be supported. Microsoft 365 subscribers will no longer be able to open or edit Publisher files in Publisher (emphasis added). Until then, support for Publisher will continue and users can expect the same experience as today."
