Teams is insane. You want a new entry in a bulleted list? Hit the enter key. If you dare.

I had managed to be on Slack exclusively for at least 10 years. Recent acquisition has me using Teams and it's hilarious to see for the first time what people have been complaining about. I thought surely people are exaggerating. No, no they are not.

It only took a couple weeks for me to figure out that I would have to compose longer messages somewhere else and then paste them into Teams.

Teams also respects some standard markdown, like italics, but not others…like bold.

MS is amazing in their ability to fuck shit up for no apparent reason. Like making a media player that doesn’t use space for play pause…

Unfortunately, some markdown renders differently when copied in vs when typed directly in teams.
