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

While I’m not saying it’s perfect, I still think it’s aeons better than Skype was shortly after its acquisition by Microsoft.
My company has teams and slack and IT wants to switch to all teams. The thread where they announced this had to be locked. :D I don’t know how a trillion dollar company can’t get this right. Worst yet the bundle that shit with everything and overworked IT depts pick it by default.
365 is just shiiiit. Even Google’s stuff (free) is far better and less intrusive/annoying.
get off lemmy sundar
…wat
Honestly I don’t know how it is even possible to make such a dog shit product. I think my first webrtc tutorial app works better than this piece of shit.
I hate teams and have to use it for work . They insist on having all the important documents I need accessed through teams instead of just putting them in a folder .
Your IT team is doing it wrong then. You can map SharePoint sites directly to file explorer. Now that brings on a whole different set of issues ala OneDrive, which IMO is an even steamier pile of shit, but still - it’s better than going straight through Teams
The worst part is that they all where accessable with file explorer before with no issues and someone decided that making us go through teams is better.
I would give almost anything to just be able to rename a Sharepoint folder as an alias for myself. I have so many Documents - x folders that all look the same but are vastly different. Arg!!
Nifty thing is you absolutely can do that if you’re using SharePoint shortcuts in OneDrive instead of SharePoint library syncing.
You can’t use both syncing and shortcuts at the same time though. Syncing libraries came first, so it’s typically what is already setup and is kind of a pain to transfer a whole org away from.
Indeed.
It’s the fucking worst.
It sucks, it doesn’t work properly in Firefox, so I have keep it open in a Chromium window too. This morning I saw new messages in my Chromium but not in Firefox until I reloaded the page. I wonder what other information it’s keeping from me.

You don’t say.
It’s like a graveyard of companies that Microsoft has acquired over the years. Sharing files is one brand name (Sharepoint if i recall), making video calls is another name, planned events is another - every function has a brand name to it, which made me feel like these were the last remaining trace of long-absorbed companies.
But that’s just my recollection, i haven’t touched Teams since Covid
I’m sick of notifications not coming through on Teams. Fucking piece of shit program.
Microsoft Teams isn’t all bad! For example, it bogged down my work computer so much at start up that I would basically get an extra break.
It temporarily deletes my meetings just before they happen, so that I don’t have to attend them!
Of course, when I open it later, the meetings are restored, with the original date, and no trace of the deletion. So not attending them is quite hard to explain to others. But it does save me from attending!
Just do in what I do. Don’t join meetings most of the time. That way when you do it is noteworthy to the meeting stakeholder.
Yeah sure my manglers through the years try to have ‘the talk’ but after awhile of training them via sheer apathy they shut the fuck up.
I solve complex problems, get my tasks done, I’m independent and I stay busy because I’ll get bored. Most meetings could just be an email. There’s no real collaboration except managers or scrum masters asking what your blockers are but not actually doing anything about it. If I think the meeting will be a waste of my time I just don’t show up.
Take a print
The one problem with that is that I need to know I’m not being told about a meeting to take a print.
The the screen recording always on lol
Oh, nice, Windows 11 will fix Teams!
fuxk yea I get like an extra 30 mins a day at leastttt
Hahaha!
Fuckin epic!
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.”)

No, no! Dogshit sometimes fertilizes and promotes growth. Microsoft teams is poison.
