> I type stuff, and people see it

I wish... I'm on Windows 11 Enterprise with corporate Teams, definitely 100% Microsoft approved combination and:

- on one channel my message never got sent, while on another channel it does work

- sometimes when I scrolled up the old messages doesn't show up, with a 'message removed by organization retention policy' text.. but those are messages from yesterday and sometimes when I restarted Teams it shows up again.. sometime it doesn't but when I opened web Teams it does show up

- sometime I can't connect to Teams for no reason, restarting Teams and computer doesn't help either, went to the IT helpdesk and they spent several minutes redoing what I did until they just googled it and delete the cookies or something

I also used slack and from my perspective its 100% reliable at delivering text messages

I use Linux and try to use Teams in Chrome for some client communications. It's been a frustrating experience to get myself logged in. There's a lot of confusion about my live account, microsoft account and several others that i'm not familiar with. I usually just run it without logging in now and just type my name.

Slack is definitely better but I have had issues with message delivery and things especially across the "native" desktop application and the mobile app.

Flaky Wifi connection? Maybe Slack just retries more, and Teams gives up easily?
