Today on "I can't figure out if this is because this app is probably 80% vibe coded or because Microsoft is Microsoft", Teams has decided that it will begin saying "file deleted" through my screen reader about twice a second while a download is in progress, coming very, very close to giving me a minor heart attack. I feel like it would cause a minor uproar if your screen started endlessly flashing "file deleted" after you clicked download on your company's files, but this is accessibility we're talking about, so it'll probably be like this for a good few months worth of Teams versions and we'll be quietly trusting that we're not actually wiping our company's archives every time we want to grab a file from their Teams. how's everybody's Monday going? Mine feels pretty normal.

@guilevi@dragonscave.space Man I'm so fucking tired of vibe coded tripe that makes me wonder whether anyone tried using their half-baked dream at all between typing a prompt and pressing publish 1.0, but Teams... Teams is something so much worse.

@guilevi@dragonscave.space i tried one drive as I wanted an off site backup, aouw, never again! it wouldn't do the most basic. so I'm using dropbox now. onedrive is an awful seemingly uncustomisable programme.

@guilevi@dragonscave.space That is stressful and I kind of wonder what incompetence led to that happening

@guilevi@dragonscave.space @serrebi@serrebiradio.com MS Edge, (again, Microsoft being Microsoft), enjoys saying "file deleted" almost endlessly until ... the file downloads? It is on my work PC, so I feel ya there! If it helps, you're not alone. It is really quite jarring, though.
