    What’s wild about Teams’ popularity is that nobody actually seems to like it. I know Slack gets some shit too, but I’ve also seen people defend it. I freaking hate teams. Nothing about it works exceptionally well. It’s just a hodgepodge of kind of working features.

      I have to use Windows and Teams for work and I’m starting to feel like a computer historian or an operating system archeologist every time I use my work PC.

      Someone called me directly on Teams the other day and the old Skype ringtone played; now I already knew that MS absorbed Skype but it was weird because the actual ringtone is sort of low-fi, like it’s probably the same 20 year old .wav file.

      I’m pretty sure the new W11 file explorer is just Edge which is just Chrome.

      I feel like I’m looking at geological layers whenever I dive into OS settings.

      Some window skins are clearly from Vista.

      Aesthetically it is a nightmare, but it also clearly demonstrates that W11 is six operating systems in a trenchcoat.

        W11 is six operating systems standing on each other’s shoulders, wearing a trenchcoat

        i seem to have ended up with my linux install being six desktop environments walking in a row, wearing a horse costume
