Yeah, the big change here seems to be that Microsoft has decided to also (finally) consolidate the consumer-facing brands: it's still been half "Office 365 for Home" and half "Microsoft 365 Home" for those same years depending on which website or application you were looking at. The biggest news in the article seems to be that the under-powered "Office" app bundled in Windows 10 and 11 that is mostly an ad for Microsoft 365 Home or a mostly useless "launcher" if you are a Microsoft 365 Home user is itself getting renamed "Microsoft 365" and getting a fancy new "Visual Studio Ribbon O" [†] logo. (No mention if it will be any less of a useless ad/launcher, just fancy new logo.)

[†] This is part that confuses me most about the new logo change: it's very much using the design language of Visual Studio projects and I don't think that is intentional to accidentally break the walls between Visual Studio branding and Office product branding, but I don't like it. It's nice having clearly different branding between developer tools and "productivity" tools.

Which is an absolutely TERRIBLE name for business software. Nobody works 365 days a year.

In 1password I had to name the entry "Microsoft 360 365" because I couldn't remember that it was 365.

Wonder how they plan to avoid what made Intel transition to names like Pentium from 80586, the impossibility of trademarking numbers.
