Since we are apparently giving messaging platform reviews here, I feel exactly the same way about Microsoft Teams. It works great. It does everything I want. It doesn’t get in my way. 10 out of 10 keep up the great work guys!

Then you must not be using it.

Teams network connectivity is a plain joke. If you use suspend, or frequently change network, the thing will just never reconnect, even though you have VPN alive and all network applications perfectly running.

And the thing is just absurbdly sluggish, only display blurred grey lines instead of text in a meager attempt to look snappy.

Now try to be connected to 3 different Teams instances at the same time.

I don’t believe you.

I would never accuse Teams of being fast.

Doesn’t seem to matter if I have an i9, a macbook m4 or a threadripper.

I only use Teams for meetings and the calendar, and the occasional chat during a meeting. I find it totally fine and I don't really think about it much one way or the other. For reference I have a 2021 M1 Max with 64 GB.

		Probably all managers and engineers working on Teams have similar copious amounts of memory and powerful CPUs on their devices and hardly use their own product. That would explain a lot

I had a teams meeting yesterday and the entire UI disappeared so I couldn't unmute the mic. Shortcut didn't work either.

Months back I was in a meeting and the dial tone just started sounding like someone was calling me.

I face bugs like this often. It's a pos.

>It works great.

When it is online, I agree with things asides from the "fast" part, actually. But many companies have a secondary service for async comms/chat when being Teams cannot be online, and compared to Slack.

Honestly can't tell if this is not sarcasm/rage bait.

Teams that has 3 different UI frameworks on every platform (but your best bet is the web)? With the Microsoft login that tends to loop forever redirecting to God knows where?

It's incomparable to telegram.
