Rant warning!
I mean I just quit a office call, the share screen ribbon wouldn’t disappear, opened task manager to kill it nope not found, finally had to select a “quit teams” option from start window. Note this is still windows 10.
Further the entire teams app is sloppy, when I start listing, the enter works but within the same message (when unintended) I have to ensure I click shift+enter to enter a new line. I can’t choose between enter and shift+enter.
A few questions now:
- why/how do these guys design a product this way
- Does it mean Microsoft can keep running any app which necessarily doesn’t appear on my task manager?


Maybe the real issue is the idea of a “collaboration tool”. You could argue the only such ambitious tools I’ve tried are lotus notes and Microsoft Teams, and both were horrible: lots of services but in an ugly ui with poor usability. Teams had unreliable phone and notes didn’t have it at all.
It’s much better dealing with a set of tools containing better implementations of the feature you want. Maybe it’s just not useful trying to cram that much functionality into one tool.
And yes I’ll name names, I currently get much better results from
You are absolutely correct. That they aer bundling the different software is why it will lack.
If a tool bundles up 10 components and then you poll ten people all they have to do is not like one of those components for the whole bundle to lack.
