Teams has too many notifications, and too many types of notifications
We use Teams at my organization. It started off great, especially with the GIF integration. Well, let me clarify that. Once I turned off ALL the notifications, it was good. Literally all. 100...
Microsoft decided to spam everyone with notifications. Not only in teams but in other products as well (Yammer, Copilot, etc.). For example, with Copilot, everytime I open a PowerPoint document there is a popup offerering useless stuff (like summaries of presentarions I know or I have made).
In Teams, almost notifications can be disabled. Except for the "Activity", which there is no way to disable it.
I hate notifications and applications that are designing to grab my attention, which is the case of Teams. I just want to do my work in my rythm. I don't want to be in a work environment were my attention is always required for different things and I can't complete anything.
