Update…Per Microsoft’s instructions, disabled all tracking protections in Safari and requested desktop mode and it works. Their instructions say turn protections back on after using teams… 😐

Funny enough it works in Safari and not Edge…tho that may be Apple’s fault since all browsers are somewhat just versions of Safari, last I heard…

    It comes with the Office subscription. People who choose it are not the ones using it daily.

      My company’s IT department tried to push Teams since we pay for it either way. The rest of the company revolted and stayed on Slack.

        I’ve been in an interview and the hiring manager wanted to have a call in Teams. Didn’t take that job.

        Yup the people who chose it get celebrated for cutting hundreds of dollars per user per year for another product.

      This fucking mentality. “Let’s use this thing that’s free instead of paying 50 dollars/month, the people who have to work with this can get their asses fucked!”

        The business/work version of Teams isn’t free, you’re paying for it as part of the 365 subscription.

        That’s part of why there’s a push to use Teams: companies see it as already paying for it, so might as well use it.

        And of course there’s the constant barrage of fear mongering coming out of the security crowd that says the only sensible, secure thing to do is bring absolutely every fucking thing into a native 365 app. Because they fail to notice that the attack surface they’re so concerned about is a healthy software market.

        To be fair, slack price can reach up to thousands per month for very big companies.

        That being said, teams is a ridiculous piece of software that is indeed broken.

          Yeah but very big companies should expect to spend thousands per months supporting their team

        It doesn’t even make sense in terms of numbers. If you’re paying people six figure salaries, that means they’re earning your company seven figures easy. If you increase the productivity of a person bringing in seven figures by 1%, that’s $10k minimum.

        And yet they want to save like $13 per year to use a product that might cut their productivity by 5%
