Summarizing video showing MS’ horrible practicies regarding Office 365’s subscription tiers, where they basically forcefully upgrade you to a higher tier subscription, and at the same time renaming the tier names so you won’t notice…

      Not the site you’re looking for, but Massgravel’s MAS (GitHub link) works just fine to activate any office or Windows install for free.

      Not really 100% legal, but seeing as the scripts have been available on a M$ platform without being taken down it’s pretty safe to assume M$ doesn’t care. (They make their money from enterprise customers anyways)

      I got my Windows 11 key and office key from here:

      https://shop.lifehacker.com/sales/microsoft-office-professional-2021-for-windows-lifetime-license-5

      There may be better places but the prices were better than I expected so I tried it. Site was fine, and both licenses worked perfectly. I think i saw get another 15% offer if your a new user so don’t forget to sign up at the bottom to get more off your first purchase. I actually see office 2024 as well now and it’s a bit much at $160, but from what I see Amazon and newegg are selling it for $250. I would still wait, I honestly have no idea what new stuff they ever add that is useful to me anymore, 2021 is probably fine for $100 less.
