Teams ist alles Schlechte an Microsoft in einer App kombiniert. Schlecht designed und extrem buggy.

Ich glaube dass ich beruflich manchmal Teams verwende hat mich dazu gebracht mein Gaming System auf Linux zu switchen.

Not really. People mostly drink local beer (each city has at least one local brewery) and others buy craft beer. I don’t know anyone who’s drinking foreign beer regularly.

Seems like people disregard the web part of the question and just suggest random apps. The only web interface in here so far is voyager which I would also recommend.

„Active enough“ seems funny to me as Xing used to be pretty active in the past but essentially got replaced by LinkedIn. It seems that Xing has also made some very poor business decisions in the past that contributed to this decline.

Would be great if it’s growing again but in my memory it’s just a dying network.

AI images even just as OG images always make a site much less trustworthy for me. There are so many insane pictures of Elon they could’ve picked here but nope, it has to be AI.

Yeah I always call it the printer USB port. I wonder why it’s so popular there? Maybe it’s the USB connector that is hardest to break or pull off by accident?

Touch? Mac? Airpods? What the fuck are you doing? You aren’t doing real business tasks if you’re using an iPad.

I’m using it on the phone sometimes to reply to people which I don’t think is a weird use case. The AirPods issue happens on macOS and I’m not sure if you’re just ignorant but lots of businesses operate on macOS, especially in my industry (ui design, frontend web dev) it’s unusual to even see Windows.

Seriously, teams is one of the worst apps I have to use on a regular basis. It’s insanely buggy, especially if you are a freelancer working in multiple teams.

• parts of the app don’t load correctly
• parts of the app don‘t support touch very well
• you get useless notifications, i.e. for a thread you have open or an action you caused yourself but completely miss others
• the UI has SO MANY flaws like giving people different colored placeholder avatars in different parts of the app which made me assign tasks to the wrong person a few times
• it needs its own audio driver on macOS which is probably invasive and does a shit job with airpods

There’s probably more I can’t think of right now but teams actively kills my productivity and I dread having to open it. I don’t understand how businesses can rely on this so heavily and I‘m wondering how incredibly incompetent the team developing it at Microsoft can be.

Seriously, enshitification is the only thing US companies do well these days. They just dig deeper moats around their walled gardens because they’re too greedy to make decent products that people actually want.

Like me? Jokes of Reddit users aside, this is very big internationally. Just checked German news right now and it’s still the headline article.

Found the Reddit user

Nice, it’s also just a barcode scanner instead of failure prone image recognition. Its index seems rather small though, first 3 items I scanned were not in the database.

Nice, just got both apps. They both look like they’re vibe coded though :/

Great to see I‘m not the only one who loves this episode! Hank Scorpio is a great character as well.

Want some cream?

Can’t happen soon enough. Few people want AI and now it will fuck over a bunch of people very directly. No idea how long the investors can keep inflating this bubble now.

I came from Nextnews which was great (but works only with nextcloud)

I made that app! Glad you liked it and I wish I had more time for it.

Hoffentlich lenkt ihn dann einfach was anderes ab. Innenpolitisch läuft es in den USA verständlicherweise ja gerade auch nicht rund für Trump.

Microsoft, Google etc. sind ja nur Firmen, die u.a. einen E-Mail Dienst hosten. Es gibt sicherlich auch Firmen, die das Einrichten und Betreiben von Mastodon-Instanzen anbieten und in Zukunft gibt es vielleicht auch Anbieter, die genau wie bei E-Mail sogar eigene ActivityPub-Dienste anbieten.

Jedes Unternehmen und jede Behörde haben E-Mail Adressen unter einer eigenen Domain, um Vertrauen aufzubauen und Kontrolle in eigenen Händen zu haben.

Dass man für Social Media das Äquivalent einer Gmail-Adresse nutzt, ist absoluter Schwachsinn.
