I have to use Teams for work and it is absolute dog shit.

Why? My experience is the opposite.

Try searching for something that was said in a chat last month.
Then follow what was said in reply.

Now as an admin, try to delete an image someone has shared with the team.
Or control who can create new teams.

But my biggest pet peeve, which annoys me literally every day, is how it shows a notification for a new message in your task bar.
You click on it, Teams opens how you left it, and you read the message.
But the notification stays. To get rid of it, you have to click on a different chat, then back on the one where the message was posted.

I agree, those ARE annoying things. But overall functionality is pretty solid IMO.

I just don't understand how an app that's primarily a chat can fail at notifications and searching through the chat log.

Let me introduce you to discord. You get a notification for a message but there's no way to find it. You keep clicking the notification and it won't actually scroll up to the message to let you read it

I never said it wasn't dogshit, but Microsoft did win the corporate messenger race
