This is gonna sound like a troll post but i assure you it is not.

I don’t have a coding background but I’ve used Teams in a lot of workplaces and really only encountered like 2 issues entirely.

Either I got seriously lucky or it was before enshittification.

Why do you yourself dislike it? Is it UI? Performance?

I should also say I use Teams for basic purposes like messaging and uploading files, I literally don’t touch anything else and performance hadn’t been an issue. (Likely because I’ve been given thicc-ass workstations in the past)

    To prevent stupid people pinning so many messages that the feature becomes useless.

    Because the system settings are usually not what you want, most people don’t leave their headset on all day and only pick it up for calls.

    “Teams knows best!”

      Teams in in use by a few hundred million users, and most of them don’t complain about them. So maybe they do know best.

        Every time we have to join the Teams call of another company, every one of my colleagues (in a GSuite company) complains how bad Teams is at doing calls. Isn’t it supposed to be a tool for doing calls?

          No, it’s not.

          Teams is a Communications and Collaboration tool, not strictly a communications tool. It makes certain tradeoffs in order to optimize it for it’s intended use case.

            So that’s why it’s much worse than Google Meet at doing the one thing I need to use it for.

            Interesting choice by Microsoft to make everyone who isn’t using the entire suite think they’re just terrible at the job you expect from them.

              Anyone who has a software license for Teams has their entire suite, and Microsoft doesn’t market enterprise products to end users.
