Teams at least is slightly better than Skype For Business, which would hijack copy paste to put the sender's name and for some reason insert zero-width characters between every space.
Copying in Teams is messed up similarily where selecting message content also copies the timestamp and sender name even thought the selection shows otherwise.
It is worse than this, sometimes it does, sometimes it does not.
Today when I started typing, my cursor remained in the leftmost position and all of the characters appeared one by one to the right, effectively reversing all the text. I can't make this up.
This has happened to me in Gmail before. May be a chrome issue?
This is the behavior of the Unicode Right-to-Left Override character U+202E. Meant to embed Hebrew or Arabic text, it is most used by hackers to change their exploittxt.exe attachment to read exploitexe.txt

You were able to copy in teams?? Tell me the secret!
It almost never works for me.
"Skype for Business" is summed up by the fact that, AFAIK, it's just the old Lync codebase. Which was such a terrible product that they thought they'd be better off getting rid of its own branding and rubbing Skype on it.
It was so bad, even Microsoft couldn't make it work properly for themselves!
