  • We just got forced to ditch slack for teams despite a massive effort from myself and a few others to justify the cost of the platform.

    Kind of glad we didn't get sign off now because this would have been egg on my face.

    • We started using Teams a few years ago. You can feel gigabytes of Javascript running on the background just by going from one channel to another. Terrific job.

      • I wouldn't mind the performance issues if the experience was even just slightly better. I can never find what I need on teams, messages just get lost in the ether.
