I moved to SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint Online. Again, I am using SharePoint Online...

How can i change the top-left 'SharePoint'? I am using SPO so using below code is not an option. 

$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication http://tozit-sp:2015
$webApp.SuiteBarBrandingElementHtml = "Awesome Text Goes Here" 
$webApp.Update()

Can this be changed or replaced? I just can't believe so many features being left out in SPO... Does Microsoft even have a team dedicated for SharePoint issue?

    This cannot be changed. Anything in the SuiteNav should not be altered as the DOM regularly changes.

    And you'll note the on-prem command (which doesn't work starting in SharePoint 2019 modern) applies to the entire Web Application; since SharePoint Online is a multi-tenant solution, you can't do anything that would impact another tenant on the same farm.

    @Trevor Seward

    Hi, Trevor. Thank you for the confirmation.

    If you don't mind, could you please consider my second question below?

    My team is wanting to change the url of our SharePoint site, as an example, let's say https://Love.SharePoint.com' is our url currently. Initially, we wanted to be able to change it to 'https://LoveMore.SharePoint.com' but that seems not possible in SPO.

    So, I was hoping if there is a way we can come up with a 'nickname' url that can be used to direct users. So instead of having an user type 'https://Love.SharePoint.com', the person can just type 'https://Love' or something that will direct them to our sharepoint site.

    Is this possible in anyway? If there's 3rd-party app that can accommodate this, my team is willing to consider paying for such service.

    Thank you very much in advance.
