That’s all.

EDIT: Thank you all for detailing your experience with, and hatred for, this miserable product. Your display of solidarity is inspiring. Now, say it with me:

Fuck Microsoft

In mean aside from the fact that almost all of that story is completely wrong, it’s a good story.

Source: Used to work at Microsoft and worked a lot with people from the Skype team.

What is the real story?

[+] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world -24 points 3 days ago

They probably used Chat-GPT which at the time.....

Ok Mr Chat I need to rewrite the Skype code to look more like what we have been doing at Microsoft.....

Oh my! It keeps crashing my PC, can you do a little less crash and more icons and shit?

Oh, it crashed my PC once more. How about this time no crash?

Dude, I said no crash! But nice graphics! Can you make the people icons at least 25% of the total screen real estate? And can you also hide the full screen icon into at least half an hour of clicks? Yeah make it real hidden!

Fantastic work on the full screen thing! Could you not make it like anything Microsoft has made before up to the point where it can actually run?

Good job at sending all my information to random strangers! Many points for that! And the icons! Soo big and beautiful! Thanks Chat-GPT! Bill! We're ready to release!

…

When do you think teams came out?

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world -1 points 3 days ago

I've been using teams for 3 or 4 years before the pandemic... So maybe around 2015? I gotta Google check that. But then before it was called teams it was called Skype. I recall the thing had a shitty transition to becoming teams.

Looks like the transition was around 2016 from Skype to teams but Skype has been around since 2003.
