      Sometimes I miss Microsoft Lync, but not often.

      I made this comment as a joke but I actually do miss that chats could be in separate windows. s far as I know most major corporate (and non corporate, looking at you Discord) chat platforms don’t let you pop out windows.

        You can pop out threads with a command click in Slack, but I don’t know if you can change that to the default behaviour.

      Business, government, and military contracts. Doesn’t matter how crappy you are, as long as you promise to be the fall-guy when a insert large entity has a insert large tech problem, they’ll keep shoveling money at you.
