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

Yes. But moving on, Is this just a modless wasteland of a community? It seems like anything goes in /technology

It's particularly bad now that it's forcibly embedded into every computer, and at the forefront.

You can't hit Win-C by mistake any more, since Windows will instead open a window to "chat with friends and family" by trying to install Teams. (Which makes it particularly bad on my end is that the install broke, so it will randomly pop up later with "Cannot install teams at the moment. Please try again later.")

365 is just shiiiit. Even Google's stuff (free) is far better and less intrusive/annoying.

While I have close to zero trust in MSFT and event much dislike a lot of m365, teams isn’t actually that bad and loop is really good.

I literally saw someone using slack the other day and got excited. Wtf is wrong with me

It was a few years ago, but I still panic when I hear the incoming call sound. One of the worst sounds ever made.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yes, yes it is.

and every fucking company is using it. I don't even wanna know how much money my company is paying for all the MS crap we use.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

It’s being used because they’re already paying for MS Enterprise.
