I burned 4 years making SharePoint intranet sites inside a big corporation. None of those skills transferred to modern development.

I work with SharePoint professionally and it's incredibly frustrating. If I'm trying to find out which list a document was uploaded to, it could be in 3+ locations. Much of my time with SP has been spent figuring out where stuff is and WHY it was uploaded there in the first place.

As someone about to (reluctantly) go down this rabbit hole, I'm not feeling reassured. ;(

I was playing around with Sharepoint Online, the latest version. It was my first time looking at sharepoint and I had something usable working in about 30 minutes. Maybe they fixed things with the cloud version?

I've disliked Sharepoint in the past, and recently also had good experiences. Yes, perhaps they have cleaned up their act.
