Copilot.microsoft.com Redirect to M365.cloud.microsoft, Chats Gone
Key topics
I don't know if this is a gradual rollout or what since there isn't a large outrage yet, but if you use copilot.microsoft.com, have useful data there and still haven't lost access you might want to make copies of anything you want to keep.
Also if anyone from Microsoft is reading this: what is going on here? How does a company put that much effort into the compilot brand only to sacrifice it to drive customers to Office?
Microsoft's Copilot website is redirecting to a different URL, causing users to lose access to their previous chats, prompting concerns about data preservation and branding strategy.

Copilot itself blamed it on "compliance" yesterday but so far no explanation as to why it works on one paying customer and not on another paying customer in the same country :-/
