4 months agoI did see another report that it’s just a component in Edge. Unfortunately I don’t have that link handy right now.

There’s basically nothing categorical that can’t run on Linux…
From a desktop standpoint, I agree. From a business server infrastructure standpoint, I disagree completely. We run tons of software that doesn’t run on Linux. Maybe there are alternatives, but there are other aspects in play (integrations with other services, vendor pricing, etc).
It’s not just desktops that people worry about.
That doesn’t make it right.
And not everyone can dump Windows for Linux. We run a lot of software that requires Windows. Changing is impractical if not impossible.
Is that it’s update check?
I use it for my work mail. I can’t speak to their privacy, but I think it’s ok. So far as I know they haven’t done anything stupid, and all the connections are only from my device, no cloud intermediary.
I do like that it allows you to only apply the ActiveSync policies to the app instead of the entire device. If my employer remote wipes my device, it only impacts the app.
