      Exactly, nothing changed about them.

      This week I learned that online version Microsoft Teams outright refuses to make calls of it runs on Firefox. They are doing the same exact shit they did two decades ago.

        So THIS is why teams doesn’t work for me on Firefox anymore, Jesus. Welp, I can spoof my user string

        Huh, really? I’ll have to try that out. I only use Teams on my work computer (Mac), but Linux at home. All of our interviews are over teams, so I wonder if that’s an issue for our applicants.

          So in my case, something broke with intune. I was told to use office.com for time being.

          While that works, when I tried to call it told me that I should use chrome or edge.

        I think Google maps does something similar with Firefox, where it won’t zoom in with the mouse wheel–only the ‘+’ and ‘-’ buttons work. It also seems to lag quite a bit on Firefox. On chrome it works just fine.

      I’ve not seen a true example of this in over a decade. I feel like Microsoft becoming the biggest corporate contributor to open source has changed my outlook on Microsoft.

        The problem is it’s impossible to prove either way, just becouse they haven’t done any extinguishing in over a decade doesn’t mean any of the theoretically positive things they are doing don’t have those intentions, embrace and extend aren’t antithetical to contributing to open source, in fact I would say what they are doing is embracing it pretty well

        If not for their history I’d say it’s great! But this is Microsoft we’re talking about, even if they have changed we shouldn’t just assume their intentions are pure

          It sounds like you are working off of FUD though. With the change over of Microsoft twice since the litigation against them, it stands to reason that there isn’t a single worker from high up in Microsoft that has been there since 1999.
