The interface is terrible and nothing works like it should. Example. So I’ve got a shared folder which I set up in Teams and I mount it in OneDrive. I used OneDrive to populate it, ignoring the folder called “General” because what’s the fucking point of that? You can’t delete the “General” folder which seemed odd. So I’ve been happily sending out links to documents in my file structure, not realising that my colleagues had no idea there was even a folder structure there. The reason? Fucking Teams defaults to showing the empty “General” folder so people think there’s nothing there. I can’t move stuff into it because it would break the links. I can’t create a shortcut because they don’t work in teams - it just downloads a file when you click on it. So I’ve created a file in “general” with the title “click on the link next to the word General above to get to the files.txt”. Very professional. And don’t get me started on the miserable abomination that is Outlook.
And people have the absolute fucking gall to say that open source UI is bad.
First of every month we start new exel books. Simple set up, 1 page per day, 1 per book, 1 year per folder.
So lets say my first day if the month is the third. I come in, open edge, teams etc etc. thrn i have open the new exel files. So what do i do, do i search spot pick up jan. Nope that obly shows files from years ago. Do search for 2025? Nope that won’t up the January spot pick 2025 file. I have yo click through the whole dam file system in teams. Why cant search work!
That sounds like your workplaces network issue, not teams. The only time I have to relogin is after I leave the VPN’d wifi of the office building. But the button works
It’s just the hive mind of people unable to think for themselves. It works perfectly fine for organising communication and files within projects, but it’s MS so everyone must hate it such is the law of these people.
What’s wrong with teams? I use it everyday and it’s fine.

Thanks for an actual answer. I haven’t noticed anything that bothers me, but others might.

Good we don’t use for anything else.
You have exactly ten minutes to get the fuck out of this post
Everything. From UI to server. Including Forms and stream. They all suck hard.
Everytime I open teams, I am greeted with “You need to login again to continue” button, which doesn’t even work.

my org’s Teams is accessible from outside the network, so I guess it’s impossible
Most likely their Firefox support is horrible
Nope, that problem happens on Edge too.
Slack is way, way, way better in almost every conceivable way.
Ew dude, gross
Nothing about it is fine
I’m so sorry for you, hope you get all the help you need.

Are you the project’s lead developer or something?
No, just wondering what all the negativity is about.
Chat and video calling is fine. Everything else is hot steaming garbage.
What else would you want to use something like teams for??
It’s just the hive mind of people unable to think for themselves. It works perfectly fine for organising communication and files within projects, but it’s MS so everyone must hate it such is the law of these people.
I’ve used it here and there but my job isn’t dependent on it. I have no issues with it. 🤷
They hated him because he spoke the truth.
Yeah slack is better, but teams isn’t exactly bad.
Tin cans with string is better
Your funeral…
Both are shit as they are corpo proprietary applications.
