No, I don’t want to design a logo for a coffee shop in fucking skype.

Every app has to have fucking AI now for some reason.

    While I agree that Mic am not working can be difficult to work out with none technical people I have that experience with Teams every day. I work in IT, as do my colleagues and every morning the first call goes like “Can you hear me now?” “Gotta switch the mic.” …this is on teams on Windows/Mac and Linux … So in my anecdotal experience browser based solutions are no better or worse

      Yeah, I’ve noticed this too. It’s just been much easier to tell people through the steps they need to change their devices, when I know what software they’re using. Adding another variable, like the browser itself (eg. One browser just straight up doesn’t see a camera/mic as an available device), is something I can do without.

      The common denominator is always MS, for me. Teams and Skype are worse than zoom, for example. But when you’re already tapped in 365, paying for another service on top is an insult to injury.
