The fact that you can't stop excel from doing that until you are inside the document means that if you ever import anything into excel it WILL break your numbers into dates and you have to fix them manually. If you are typing a fresh doc you can obviously change the settings but I spent hours working with Microsoft support and they basically gave up saying that they used to have a beta version where you could disable it, but they never added the feature to live excel and they just gave up.
10/10 Microsoft.
And pray the settings don't change further.
Because they will. I have no idea why or when they do that, but those numbers will always corrupt, there was never an alternative.
Tbf, my Galaxy S22 did this a couple months ago with a system update. All my battery optimization exceptions were reset, so my alarm clock app wasn't allowed to run in the background. Took me a week to figure out why my alarm wasn't going off, because they also changed the location of those settings to an even more obscure menu in app permissions.
How is the S22 holding up? I've got an S23 which I got about a year ago and I have had battery protection on since I got the phone so my battery life is still 100% and I honestly can't see myself needing an upgrade for at least 3 more years.
It's been pretty nice. I started slacking on my charging schedule a few months after I got it, so it's degraded a little bit, but I can still make it through an 8-hour shift with Spotify going through my headset. The only thing motivating me to get something else is the locked down bootloader. I'd like to install something de-google-ified, but it's straight up impossible on the US version of the S22.
I've pretty much given up and just let Google have everything. I know that's an unpopular opinion around here and I totally get it, but I just can't be fucked to try and peel Google outta my life.
Microsoft just does whatever they want and we all have to deal with it. Especially in the corporate space. It's infuriating at times.
