So far today, I've had a fight with Microsoft Teams (which forgets which camera I use, and gets tangled up with an ancient account I don't use) and something called Dynamic 365, which just won't let me in. Unfamiliarity with the world of Microsoft, or are these terrible products?
@brucelawson They're terrible. If I use the Teams application I can't use my screen reader and hear the call at the same time, at least not through my preferred sound devices.
@tink@brucelawson Teams makes me very, very deeply angry. It's one of the least intuitive, most incompetent, needlessly inaccessible (especially on Mac) products I soil myself with.
Whenever I have to use it, I die a little inside.
@brucelawson@tink I wish I could agree. Between ribbons in windows (hate) and the current so-called start menu (hate) and now teams (double friggin hate hate) I see a regression in accessibility going back at least the last 5-10 years. It's incredibly disappointing to say the least.
They talk the talk but I don't feel like many of their teams (not that one!) walk the walk.
@FreakyFwoof@brucelawson That's interesting. Other than Teams, I tend to agree with Bruce. Not keen on the introduction of AI, but that's a whole other kettle of fish.
@tink@brucelawson It is one of the worst designed audio application I've encountered, so bloated. Not everything needs to be a platform. Alas, it's Microsoft!
@nevali @brucelawson
Agreed. Teams keeps trying to sign me in to an account I no longer have. Even deleting all its cookies doesn't seem to make it forget.
Half tempted to reformat the laptop just to make it stop.
