Current-era Microsoft continuing to push the boundaries of consent.

Microsoft Edge is a good browser but for some reason Microsoft keeps trying to shove it down everyone’s throat and make it more difficult to use rivals like Chrome or Firefox. Microsoft has now started notifying IT admins that it will force Outlook and Teams to ignore the default web browser on Windows and open links in Microsoft Edge instead.

“This change is designed to create an easier way for Outlook and Microsoft Teams users to reduce task switching across windows and tabs to help stay focused,” says Katy Asher, senior director of communications at Microsoft, in a statement to The Verge. “By opening browser links in Microsoft Edge, the original message in Outlook or Teams can also be viewed alongside web content to easily access, read and respond to the message, using the matching authenticated profile. Customers have the option to disable this feature in settings.”

I don't know if this is a neurodivergent thing but I 500% could never see myself in a position I could say something I knew to be such BS and put my name to it.

Mmm yes, let the snake oil flow through you.

They'd do better finally fixing teams. We're talking years after release, and there's still no option to change my status behaviour. It forces DnD when I get called, it puts me afk after only 5min, ...

Their software does not fundamentally work very well. So even if this bs would be talking about an actual feature, that's some stone age project management right there.

At this point it's better to put it down, like the sick panda it is!

It's buggy, bloated, slow and with a horrible UI.

Why fix, when you can sell?

[–] Sinister_Grape 2 points 1 year ago

My job involves a fair amount of paperwork (I know, I know, what year is this?) and the fact that Teams marks me as inactive when my hands are off the mouse for a couple of minutes borderline offends me.

Maybe that's why you don't work in marketing.

Technically, yes, lizard people diverge from ordinary human neurological make-up and marketers are all lizard people.

For real though, someone developed this feature. Like, how soul-crushing must that be, developing such blatant anti-features.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Eh, considering how MS wotks internally, the dev probably didn't even know what he was developing.
