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

Yeah, I have a similar experience, but it certainly lacks in features compared to other messengers. For example:

  • chat - formatting is terrible, Slack is way better here
  • groups - haven't bothered figuring them out, in Slack making a channel or group message is super natural
  • resources - Teams eats RAM like crazy, Slack seems to be a bit more respectful
  • recent chats/messages - I can never find what I'm looking for, with Slack it's simple

I like the integration w/ Outlook because we're basically forced to use it at work, but Slack is way better for almost everything that doesn't interact directly w/ Outlook. So if it's not a scheduled meeting, I and my team much prefer Slack.
