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…

      Teams is exceptional in being terrible.

      I was totally over trash talking MS stuff until Teams came along and reminded me just how terrible they can be when they have a market segment cornered.

        When it works it’s alright. Interfaces with the rest of office. But Microsoft literally breaks it all the time…it’s never been more broken then when I updated to Windows 11 today. Literally spent 6 fucking hours on updates, reboots, uninstalls and reinstalls. When I logged off and went home I was still using the damn web version because windows updates were immediately breaking anything tech support fixed. I got paid for doing very little but really frustrating day.

          Speaking as someone who has to use Google Cloud Platform most days; they also do some horrific stuff, and their documentation and support are miles behind the AWS and Azure equivalents. And having worse documentation than Azure is quite the achievement.

      True but with good reason. I hate Microsoft and my job is implementing their stuff.

      My colleagues are all hyped up about Ignite later this month, it’s disgusting, like a cult. And they’re constantly spamming LinkedIn full of Microsoft headlines like good corporate drones.

      We were told that Teams was the bees knees and it would massively enhance collaboration and productivity due to its fantastic integration.

      Well, let me tell you that my disappointment was immeasurable.

      It is so slow, so inflexible, so unpolished. I despise it for anything other than a quick chat.

        On my work computer Teams is consistently the biggest memory hog even when I’m not in a meeting or actively using it.

      Yeah, like there’s issues but I was literally just arguing with a guy earlier who genuinely thought that using Linux was a magic bullet for network security because “FOSS is secure!”

      He was more worried about microsoft skimming his data than threat actors planting malware. THAT was his primary “security” concern. Find me any Sec analyst that is worried about what Microsoft is doing versus hacktivists or foreign governments, you can’t. We know it’s happening, just don’t use personal shit on your company computer.

      Then he accused me of being a Microsoft fanboy because I said users having unrestricted access to putting whatever software they want on their machine is a massive attack surface.

      These wannabe’s are so fucking bad here, and because there’s so many of them the non-IT users get up voted while actual IT professionals get downvoted for speaking the truth based on actual security policies.
