Why when someone react on a chat message, opening the chat channel is not enough to dismiss the notification counter? No! I need to click on "Activity" tab. Here I see a list of my activities. The reaction is still here! Someone put an emoji on my text. I exult. Teams can now dismiss the notification counter...
I hate it, but... goto the chat channel and click in it.
I had someone on the team here send one, I was already in the chat and it still showed up in Activity. I just click in the message area and it goes away.
I hate Teams. So much.
But the worst bug is that from time to time the freaking arrow keys stop working in the edit box! Last time it happened to me it lasted weeks and survived reboots. I can find references to this issue from 2019.
How can such basic functionality be broken I have no idea.
Mind, it could be worse. It could be Webex.
Also: how can you provide a wiki module that’s not searchable?
Teams feels to me like it’s thrown together by a bunch of interns that are learning Agile. Keep changing things without any strategy.
For me, it has one killer feature it doesn't have on other platforms: it can use native notifications, as opposed to showing a random window.

This reminds of the Remote Desktop client. Until maybe a year ago, when they've introduced a similar client for Windows, the best RDP experience to be had was hands down on the Mac. A close second was Remmina on Linux. Windows was a complete shitshow. In particular, it wouldn't support resizing a connection window once it was open (technically it did, but it wouldn't update the resolution of the remote end).
In fact, it doesn't even reliably receive messages. At times there are days of delay from the message being sent to me receiving it.
Anyway, no two people seem to have similar experiences with the application...
