Beginning to roll out with this build, Chat is now Microsoft Teams – Free. Microsoft Teams – Free is pinned by default to the taskbar and can be unpinned like other apps on the taskbar. Stay tuned for more enhancements as we continue to enhance Microsoft Teams – Free with more features and improvements.
I’ve had the honor to work at a company which ditched Slack for M$ Teams because they wanted to save cost after paid for whatever fancy Office 365 package MS offered them.
If I worked at M$ on Teams I would just go postal then kill myself out of the shame for shipping such a disgrace of a communication tool.
A lot of the software reeks of being outsourced pajeet code. It’s completely ridiculous. 11’s UI is atrocious and it burns so many CPU cycles because they abuse Webapps for a lot of their core windows applications. And I foresee this getting worse in Win12.
They’re in a death spiral of adding more features at the cost of making things overall buggy because spending time on bugfixes doesn’t generate money for their “As a Service” business model. It’s Arch Linux except the “Oops xorg broke” tier problems are more common on software developed by a multi billion dollar company vs software that’s packaged, developed, and distributed as a labor of love by a community of engineers and sysadmins who love and enjoy software development.
This is quality work from the likes of Microsoft nowadays (from an insider preview):
It’s an Electron app. Know how many Electron apps don’t run like a thousand Pajeets shat down its street? One – Visual Studio Code. And even it’s getting worse lately.
