People don't hate Teams. It is competitive enough against Zoom and Google Meet (which is the worst of the three) for people to use it for video conferencing.

As a slack competitor Teams is arguably worse, but for people who haven't used Slack the difference is hard to justify switching.

Teams and Microsoft in general is foisted on people by IT departments. Nobody chooses to use it.

You don't hate teams. I hate teams. Because it's ultra-slow and bloated, and used to eat 1.5 CPU cores all the time until I threw it permanently on a browser window. And now it doesn't notify me when other people send me a message.

Slack is just shit, and being just shit makes it an order of magnitude better than the trainwreck that is teams.

> People don't hate Teams.

Yes, hate is a soft word in this case. We despise it, we wish its creators burned in hell together with the management who chose it.

Teams is the opposite of engineering, is the bully boy around the corner.

To call Teams a shit, means giving it consistence, which it doesn't have.
