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

I hate teams and have to use it for work . They insist on having all the important documents I need accessed through teams instead of just putting them in a folder .

Your IT team is doing it wrong then. You can map SharePoint sites directly to file explorer. Now that brings on a whole different set of issues ala OneDrive, which IMO is an even steamier pile of shit, but still - it's better than going straight through Teams

I would give almost anything to just be able to rename a Sharepoint folder as an alias for myself. I have so many Documents - x folders that all look the same but are vastly different. Arg!!

Nifty thing is you absolutely can do that if you're using SharePoint shortcuts in OneDrive instead of SharePoint library syncing.

You can't use both syncing and shortcuts at the same time though. Syncing libraries came first, so it's typically what is already setup and is kind of a pain to transfer a whole org away from.

The worst part is that they all where accessable with file explorer before with no issues and someone decided that making us go through teams is better.
