No, but on the other hand, I do have some glimmer of hope that eventually someone at Microsoft will see these kinds of comments and do something to fix that abomination. I have no doubt Microsoft employs many very talented people, but none of them seem to be working on the user facing products which make my corporate laptop run so poorly (Teams or OneDrive).

They've transitioned the consumer client from Electron to Edge WebView, Angular to React, and the same for the enterprise application appears to be in public preview and slated for general availability later this year. Still web tech but it's supposed to address some of the memory and performance problems.

So I think they've known how unpleasant Teams is!

T2 is much worse that version 1, I'm sorry to say because I really really want to like Teams since I'm forced to use it for work.

Don't tell me that, I want to believe in the dream. :/

Highlighting the 9 second startup time does not bolster confidence.

Yes, appreciate the transparency, but it's kind of embarrassing "22 second launch time" was considered acceptable for so long, and "more than twice as fast" now means "almost a 10 second launch time".

Yeah it is something but as an app that usually runs at startup, I'd just be pleased if it can snap a little faster and be less janky. Fingers crossed.

To be fair, it has already improved a lot. They are doing something whether they see your comment or not.
