You’re spot on there. It’s all the little things that Slack and Discord get right but Teams gets wrong. For example, searching for messages, navigating between channels, showing which channels have unread messages. Also, Teams frequently has issues on Mac in a way that Slack and Discord don’t.

Well it's also the big things like chat and video to be fair.
The only saving grace Teams has is it so reliably overheats my MacBook Air that no meeting can be over an hour long

Much better. It's not perfect, but without mind-reading, I'm not sure what you would do to improve Slack's search. Teams, on the other hand... messages just seem to disappear entirely.

Is Discord better than Teams? I can't tell, I'm still waiting for it to finish swapping and processing my input. Okay, this might be a (slight) exaggeration, but I just don't think a chat app should run much slower than any IDE. What is that thing doing all the time?
