Rant warning!

I mean I just quit a office call, the share screen ribbon wouldn’t disappear, opened task manager to kill it nope not found, finally had to select a “quit teams” option from start window. Note this is still windows 10.

Further the entire teams app is sloppy, when I start listing, the enter works but within the same message (when unintended) I have to ensure I click shift+enter to enter a new line. I can’t choose between enter and shift+enter.

A few questions now:

  • why/how do these guys design a product this way
  • Does it mean Microsoft can keep running any app which necessarily doesn’t appear on my task manager?

    One thing I haven’t seen mentioned…

    Slack was taking a big market share over MS Lync

    Microsoft rebranded to Teams and gave it away /for free/ to companies, getting them to decide “well, it covers enough basic features… We can save x million dollars/year”

    Without thinking about what happens once Teams is the standard
