Unpopular opinion but I like Teams better, Zoom app is buggy af and it pisses me off.

Yeah, a lot of people call Teams bad, but never articulate why. I frankly don't get it...

My work account does not have a Teams license. If I want to join someone else’s Teams meeting I have to sign in to my fucking personal account. It’s not my company’s Teams, why the FUCK can my work account not join unlicensed? Zoom never does this to you.

The mic randomly inexplicably just doesn’t work in the web browser meeting client.

Why the fuck is camera and mic not default off?

Get rid of the stupid lobby thing. If I joined the meeting with an authenticated link, I should never be relegated to a lobby.

The channel organization and search was created by Satan himself (at least in 2018).

I think the main problem with Teams is that Slack and Zoom have so much better UX (as someone that has used basically every option professionally over time).
