New Teams is actually much better imo. The way they’re murdering Outlook though…

I think it is matter of who it used to what. I was working with web version of Outlook for a long time and loved it. Now I am forced to use old one and hate it.

As I understand it, web Outlook pioneered numerous browser innovations that we take for granted now.

That's such a low bar. I'm still on "classic" at work, and I can't imagine what they would have to do to make it worse.

Outlook gets my eternal disdain because it still does not understand HTML written after 2006.

It's so bad, we have a dedicated email HTML person.

Now I just need that on linux… They even killed the linux app and just want you to use it via prog. Webapp. Its awful.

Teams was built in-house, right? Whose existing customers did they fuck over?

Their own.

It's been slowly getting better though. Nowadays they have a working search function, pasting works most of the time, and it's much harder to break the input area. Took them several years, but for pretty much all of 2023 it has been an acceptable chat software
