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

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

Yeah I'm going to go ahead and record this meeting. Please speak up if you object. Because we've provided so much psychological safety that there will surely be no judgement or fear of reprisal for those with any hesitation to swim in line with the corporate current. We're also going to share files in this chat that you'll have to catalogue and remember - so when someone refers to a nondescript file shared 3 weeks ago you'll be forced to know exactly which chat and file you're referring to. Also, put yourself on video. We appreciate face to face communication.

well, it's not just Teams and not just MS. Have you worked with Zoom lately? I do agree that Teams occupies that very special dark space in my heart right next to hate and loathing.

I wish we could use Slack.

[–] Gumus@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I'm torn on this, because on one hand Slack is better, but I've ever only got the option to use the free tier with Alzheimer's. Honestly, that's so crippling I might rather suffer Teams with full history.

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

[–] databender@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

You can't set alerts for availability. This is functionality that it used to have, but lost across updates. This is by itself is enough to relegate it to the compost bin.

Today it decided to not mark messages read after I had opened them.
