I guess that means they don't have an XBox or play a lot of PC games? Maybe they prefer Nintendo or PlayStation?

What a pile of garbage. That we rely on teams at my org causes me endless frustration.

Why does it have to be so heavy

We are using Zoom, not sure which is worst.

Speaking as a developer myself, it's likely not the devs' fault that Teams is as shit as it is. They are all intimately familiar with its shortcomings and are perfectly able and willing to fix them, but are prevented from doing so by management who insist that shovelling crapware down their customers' throats is far more important.

Honestly, what I find frustrating with Teams is that both MSN Messenger and Skype were right there. It's not even an issue of copyright or trademark as MS owns both. Even just lazily re-branding Skype would have been head-and-shoulders above what we have now.

Teams is the evolution of the excellent Microsoft Lync which then became the horrible Skype for Business which then was replaced by the superior Microsoft teams.

Then again, in a world that needs developers badly everywhere, a developer that stays in a job where management forces them to maintain crappy software, is an idiot (or plain greedy). /also a developer

The job market is pretty shit for a world that supposedly needs developers everywhere.

Teams is one of those things I don't understand why companies use. Just why

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 week ago

Because it's bundled in their office subscriptions

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

Microsoft bundles all of their software in a way that makes it much more expensive to pick and choose which software you want from Microsoft and which one you would want from someone else. It's a very similar strategy to that of Adobe.

Because they needed a way to attempt to micromanage during COVID, and to do it ASAP.

I recently realized bosses have an existential fear of their employees being able to be productive without them. It makes their job unnecessary.

Because it's essentially free and hooks into the existing MS tools for data retention, data loss prevention, security monitoring, etc.

Bloated piece of shit. Can we just use Matrix?

I used Planner in the past. Its integration with teams makes a webcam pointed at a white board a lot better.

What's wrong with teams? I use it everyday and it's fine.

When you scroll back in chat history you don’t see the actual chat history.

You have exactly ten minutes to get the fuck out of this post

Everything. From UI to server. Including Forms and stream. They all suck hard.

Everytime I open teams, I am greeted with "You need to login again to continue" button, which doesn't even work.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

That sounds like your workplaces network issue, not teams. The only time I have to relogin is after I leave the VPN'd wifi of the office building. But the button works

The interface is terrible and nothing works like it should. Example. So I've got a shared folder which I set up in Teams and I mount it in OneDrive. I used OneDrive to populate it, ignoring the folder called "General" because what's the fucking point of that? You can't delete the "General" folder which seemed odd. So I've been happily sending out links to documents in my file structure, not realising that my colleagues had no idea there was even a folder structure there. The reason? Fucking Teams defaults to showing the empty "General" folder so people think there's nothing there. I can't move stuff into it because it would break the links. I can't create a shortcut because they don't work in teams - it just downloads a file when you click on it. So I've created a file in "general" with the title "click on the link next to the word General above to get to the files.txt". Very professional. And don't get me started on the miserable abomination that is Outlook.

And people have the absolute fucking gall to say that open source UI is bad.

Especially the mobile app, fucking trash

I too would be wary of anyone working at Microsoft (or Oracle, or Salesforce, or SoftTech, or Tata or a bank).
