I cant stand anything microsoft anymore. Teams, outlook, word, every iteration just makes me more angry.

I got a new job, fully remote, and we use Teams. Not gonna lie, I don’t get the hate. It seems as exactly adequate as WebEx or Zoom. None of them make me cum, none of them make me upset.

What is it about Teams that people hate so much? How does WebEx or Zoom do it any better?

Fully onboard with hating new Outlook though, fuck it sucks. Can’t even browse the global address list, it’s search only.

Well, are you using "new" Teams, or "classic" Teams, both of which can be installed and nag for updates that fail. My "new" Teams (just finally had to uninstall "classic" altogether) just randomly crashes/restarts throughout the day, and also randomly is "unable to authenticate", making me offline but unaware of it, so miss messages. My "old" Outlook also ~15-20% of the time, on a fresh PC start, just can't connect to server, and nothing will fix it except for rebooting PC. Yeah, so fucking done with MS shit, it's all hot garbage, from 11 on down through all their apps. They've fucked up EMAIL ffs.
