      If I’m editing more than one object in AD I almost always use Powershell. It was one of the main motivations for me to learn it in the first place.

      It’s so obvious it was a GUI made for what was once a back end tool that wasn’t meant to be fussed with all the time, but then had more and more features slapped on top over time. And don’t get me started on the integration between AD and On-Premises Exchange Server. I don’t think I have much more than a 3 hour long exasperated scream in me about that bundle of fuck.
