These modifications appear to be excellent ones. The entire Office 365 gimmick is very popular at my company. I suppose it would really free a lot of people from the awful Microsoft Experience they are currently experiencing.
teams is already a slow buggy mess that crashes multiple times a day for me with many features not working, this is before I even get into the poor UI design. Moving to react is just going to make things worse. Really trying to convince my manager to stop forcing us to use it.
right trusting microsoft sounds like a great idea, just like when they bought github. last time i heard them say that the app actually boots up faster and is faster on average but anytime I need to send a file or do a screenshare or join a meeting it crashes if I'm unlucky, if I'm lucky it will just slow down and everything lags. It's not just me either, everyone on my team and even our client who joins in on our teams meeting runs into the same issue. Our solution for them is to actually join meetings via browser.
new architecture looks dope. i'm sure performance is going to be better than using electron.
let's wait and see how it will be for people running the app in the wild.
My company has given up on the teams tab and only uses private group chats, due to the terrible UX. We have ~15 persistent group chats for a company of ~20.
Not good for keeping everybody in the loop, since somebody is almost always left out, but not much I can do at this point.
It's not even just an annoyance in the having-to-click-between-tabs sense. It makes channels nearly useless because everyone is normally in the chats tab, so no one is keeping up with what's going on in channels. Meaning the only way to get people's attention is to noisily ping everyone, which most people don't want to do so barely anyone posts in them.

[ 3.1 ms ] story [ 70.4 ms ] threadIf Microsoft was not able to do this until now since 20 years, i don't think they are able to do it.
Today, React can be a wise decision.
Famous last words.
I think it totally makes sense to stick with web
MAUI is great, and they should invest more in it. WebView2 and MAUI work together well.
This is probably a good future direction.
Who has or is using it to build cool, robust, or otherwise interesting things?
Hence Teams would have been a fantastic showcase for it.
I don't think it is likely.
The number of times I've been copying a code snippet out of a chat into a terminal and accidentally started calling the other person is way too high.
How can it be that no one is pissed how stupid this is?
Wtf I just want to be able to have all critical things one one fucking window and not needing to switch forth and back...
Aargh

...it is one fucking window
Teams+Channels are persistent permissioned shared (team and squad scoped) email threads with backing file store.
