The Zen of Teams is that Teams is so clunky it cannot be Slack.

Without threads, there is no breach of thread-etiquette.

When "channels" are so awkward, nobody uses them. Then there is no constant deluge of middle-age folks creating a Facebook out of work, needing to be reminded that the photos channel is for business-photos, not pictures of their kids.

When emoji support is limited, nobody has to police people pushing the boundaries of what emojis are appropriate.

The software is baffling. But I like it that way.

You can upload custom emoji to teams, most businesses just turn it off
