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

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.

Who told you to tell the truth?

You had no right!

[–] RevolverSly@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Indeed.

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.")

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.

[–] QuarterSwede@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

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

[–] Brujones@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Yes, yes it is.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

Based.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

Oh, did you just get the memo?

[–] sepi@piefed.social 1 points 5 months ago

Source?

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Every day it logs me out before standup and gets locked into a stupid "not loading" loop. I have to go to the login page, whereby it recognises my token and fucking logs me in. FUCK.

[–] LiamMayfair@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 5 months ago

Yes.

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 5 months ago

Agreed. They switched us to teams for our softphone and the caller ID doesn't even show me the number that called half the time. I just get a generic location which is worthless to me.
