From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Microsoft Teams is such a horrible piece of software that productivity will rise after abandoning Teams.
"How can we make slack even worse?"
Any exec who makes people use that should be fired
Care to elaborate?
I know many people who use Teams at work, and they aren't complaining. Quite the opposite actually. Various announcements are no longer emails since they have been migrated to relevant Teams channels. This means that it's way faster to scroll past announcements that are not particularly relevant to your work, and none of them clog up your inbox any more.
The only real problem is CPU and RAM usage, but as long as your IT department is reasonably funded, that's not a problem either.
Teams is slow, sluggish, buggy and crashes often. Slack is much better, so are many other tools.
