Didn’t they update Teams to a whole new platform recently and it turned out to just be a webpage rendered by edge?

That’s just the desktop client. They haven’t updated the mobile app and VDI versions and those were suffering problems too. It’s something on the backend.

Just azure being azure

Oh yea. It's been out years now and still feels like alpha software imo. It wouldn't even be understandable if it was built as FOSS by 3 dudes.

The problem is that they combined three different pieces of software into one cheaply.

So it’s big, clunky and doesn’t often work.

Apparently they are trying to fix it, but we will see

Meanwhile, Skype* works well.

(*Not msComm/lync renamed Skype. We never mean that unless we say skype4biz or its codename Hot garbage)

Was it ever anything else? 4 years ago it was already a wrapped webapp.

This was last year, but they dropped electron for their in house chromium thing

So yeah, whatever this outage is has nothing to do with their webview stuff

Teams was electron app from the beginning, so basically a web page rendered in chromium
