Perhaps Teams has changed, but in the past I personally found it more efficient for text communication because it forced everything to be a thread. With Slack there's too much variety (messages & threads in channels, direct messages, huddles, canvases) which consistently leads to visibility and findability issues since everyone uses it differently. Though I understand technically they're very similar and the emphasis is mostly visual

Worry not, soon you wouldn’t have to use anything as your job would be gone.

Also, are programmers as good in identifying root causes of misery as Luddites were? Hint: it wasn’t machines, it was capitalism.

I didn't like Jira before I used everything else. Now I like Jira.

Not having to use JS is below all of those.

I hate how that's the language everything is slowly converging to. Even if you don't work on websites, you always have this fear in the back of your mind that one day your project will be infected.

It's not even easy like people claim it is. I find JS significantly more difficult than Java because there are way more things that can go wrong and troubleshooting is way more frustrating. Just because the app will launch even with errors in the code does not make it easier in the long run. Compile time errors are good actually.

Hey I liked JIRA. I liked it even more after they forced us use Saleforce for issue tracking 💀
