@FoxVK@mastodon.cloud @BeamMeOut@mastodon.social @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @catsalad@infosec.exchange the company that I work for is going to migrate from Sharepoint to Google Workspace, so Teams will be replaced by Meet, and I dread the day because: Teams (if you are not using 3rd party conferencing hardware) has absolutely epic noise cancellingTeams has automated captioning and transcripts that work really well (sure, it's not ideal, but it's great), and for someone with broken hearing like me this is a godsendTeams video calling just worksthe company is going to stay on Windows anyway and we cannot really do our jobs if we don't run Windows (I'm in localisation) P. S. IRC is not better as a chat replacement for Teams because, by design, it has no persistence, zero fault tolerance, and no history playback unless you stick znc somewhere (and let's not mention media content)

    @mia@tearoom.tearmoon.com @FoxVK@mastodon.cloud @david_chisnall@infosec.exchange @catsalad@infosec.exchange I got chance of using corporate Google Suite and had no issues with Meet. It actually worked better than anything else across all platforms, Win, Linux or Mac. It works on Chromium and Firefox based browsers. The noise cancelling is decent too and transcription works well (in english at least, there are not that many supported languages). What might be pain is transition from Outlook to Gmail. The replies, filters are quite different.
