Wow, I’m pretty sure Hipchat is built on Electron and has had all these features for years! Microsoft must really be struggling

"Microsoft must really be struggling"

Not really. They are making more money than ever. They don't have customers asking for a Linux client in large enough numbers. That's all it is.

What’s Hipchat?
What information are you expecting that wouldn't be easier to find by googling Hipchat? I can't understand why anyone would ask this.
No one is asking ”What’s Microsoft?” though.
Yeah, Hipchat is EOL and Teams has a market. Now, I _hate_ Teams, but it is nonobvious that Hipchat has a better notion of what features are necessary to be successful.
