Microsoft continues to align with the Google way of doing business, abandoning processes that are user-friendly in favor of a more awkward way of doing things. It is simply continuing technical stupidity.
Microsoft strives to deliver utmost value to our customers through modern, optimized, secure solutions in this newly evolved world focused on digital transformation. As part of this evolution of Microsoft 365 solutions, we will be retiring SharePoint Alerts and believe Microsoft 365 customers will be better served by modern notification solutions based upon the Power Automate platform or SharePoint Rules. - SharePoint Alerts retirement - Microsoft Support
Microsoft, you believe wrongly. Alerts were simple and straightforward. We now have to setup 3 rules to accomplish what one alert did perfectly. Additionally, the Rule does not include information that the Alert included, which causes users to have to click-through to get to that information. To get that information, you have to create an Automation. I can get through it, but it is not exactly a simple process for nearly all of my user community. This is not helpful. Thanks for piling on more work for me, Microsoft.
I suppose that I should be thankful they are not ditching SharePoint completely.
