That’s all.

EDIT: Thank you all for detailing your experience with, and hatred for, this miserable product. Your display of solidarity is inspiring. Now, say it with me:

Fuck Microsoft

Spoken like a person who isn't forced to use JIRA

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

We just switched to Jira and I hate how pedantic they let admins make it.

Who in their right mind disables the "clone" option on issues 🤦‍♂️

Is there any video chat service that isn't? It seems every single one has some glaring issue that makes it a pain to use. And it's not like I could just use a FOSS thing that's better; this is one of those things where you are kinda limited to using what everyone else you're going to be talking to is using. :(

I initially hated Zoom, but honestly, it did its job really well

Today it decided to not mark messages read after I had opened them.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

That happens to me regularly. Plus it will have different read statuses in the channel list, pins, and notifications.

It's particularly bad now that it's forcibly embedded into every computer, and at the forefront.

You can't hit Win-C by mistake any more, since Windows will instead open a window to "chat with friends and family" by trying to install Teams. (Which makes it particularly bad on my end is that the install broke, so it will randomly pop up later with "Cannot install teams at the moment. Please try again later.")

Have you heard of this new thing called “Linux” ?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes, it's that thing what 4-chan hackers known as Anonymous use, isn't it?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

You mean the infamous hacker Anonymous, it's just one person who is on 4chan all the time time.

My biggest complaint is that you can't save chat logs.

I work in government, and we do a LOT of stuff on Teams, and I'm just waiting for us to get sued because we can't turn over Teams chat logs in Open Records requests.

The file/document integration is based on SharePoint. Shit built on top of a nice pile of manure

Edit: and don't get me started on the teams android app which requires access to all your media if you try to share a single image. If you share it as a file attachment however it's completely fine. No you're not getting access to my files and pictures MS, keep your filthy adware fingers off my data

Fun fact: internet explorer was originally built off the File Explorer.

I kinda stopped following programming for windows a decade ago. But in sure there is some ancient code from 30 years ago that is holding some critical files together.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Really? Why? Anything they might share would be shared with any codebase for a window application right?

Browsers, at the core are just file browsers. Websites are just files on another computer.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Every application is a file browser when you open/save, what's your point?
