    Teams wasn’t specifically built for remote work though. It was built for internal chat/messaging, document sharing, planning, etc. It is 100% used internally at MS even when people aren’t working remotely.

    I know because people at MS have been complaining about it since a few years before the pandemic.

      This is a fair point, I was being a bit facetious, but I’m sure there are plenty of teams both totally in person and totally remote using it. It is just bad optics I think. Like if Teams isn’t useful enough for them that they have to be in person despite having an ostensibly full-featured videoconferencing and calendar coordination and chat, the hell good is it for my organization?

      But github was built for remote async work and since ms acquired it got even more remote work features.
