Quote:
Slack urged the EU competition enforcer to order the U.S. software giant to separate Teams from the Office Suit and sell it separately at fair commercial prices.


Slack had better be careful what they wish for. One of the biggest competitors in the market is Discord, which has a free version good enough for 99% of uses. 😲

I would laugh so hard if forced to do what Slack wants, Microsoft makes everything in Teams free unless someone wants to pay a few dollars a month to add custom company logo emoji to the chat. 🤣

Then I'd start sobbing because doing so would make it more likely that PHBs would decide Teams is a better value* than Slack and Zoom. 😭
  • For values that don't include things like actually working well, but these are PHBs we're talking about. 🤦🏽‍♂️
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
