That’s all.

EDIT: Thank you all for detailing your experience with, and hatred for, this miserable product. Your display of solidarity is inspiring. Now, say it with me:

Fuck Microsoft

My biggest complaint is that you can't save chat logs.

I work in government, and we do a LOT of stuff on Teams, and I'm just waiting for us to get sued because we can't turn over Teams chat logs in Open Records requests.

Of all the meeting solutions, I’ve come to the conclusion that Google Meet is the least bad.

So what do you prefer over teams? And why is it better?

Screen shared coding with 1 fps. Genius.

Can't even see animations, quick actions, or significant subtleties.

I chalk most of the shit that makes teams horrible, is closely related to electron and their whole web app as a desktop app bullshit.

Buckle up, because they're doing that same enshittification to outlook next. It's already begun. There's a "new" Outlook. FML.

Am I the only one that prefers it to Slack?

It literally doesn't even function half the time.

The only thing it does better than Slack: A list of all my chats, most recent at the top, without any disappearing or grouped in some weird way. Slack annoys me.

I think that’s a bit insensitive to dogs

Fuck everything about Microsoft products. The different licenses are a nightmare, the programs are shit, and "FUCK YOU FOR TRYING TO INSTALL A PROGRAM OR USE LOCAL STORAGE" seems to be the default.

Also I don't trust them not to be spying on users. But sure, every government job I've had we used the products.

I no longer work with corporations, but an online ornithology classI did used teams. It worked, mostly, for a while. Then one day it decided that video would no longer work on my machine. Of course there's no obvious log or anything.

I even booted windows to see if it would fix it, but no.

That was on a very exotic yoga 7 pro laptop.

It's the only piece of software that's ever behaved that way.
