Or share only part of my screen. Very annoying since I only have a 5k2 ultrawide and a 4k in portrait. Regardless of which one I share, no one can read it. I have to switch the entire screen to some crappy low resolution so others can see what I’m doing.
On KDE Plasma there’s an effect to zoom in the whole screen on your cursor (it may be windows-plus and windows-minus or you may need to set it yourself). I believe Windows has something similar as well as an accessibility feature. I should think that would work when screensharing.
all that different from Discord? – people trying to use a proprietary chatroom for everything from support to wiki to knowledge base to documentation …
Hating discord is so wonderfully easy to do, I could probably muster up the ability to do it as a way to compartmentalize my mind during intense torture by baddy mafia guys if I ever got caught on an undercover mission.
Don’t get me started. Monthly scorecards that are mandated to be distributed via Teams, but you can’t embed files in that sheet, otherwise Teams shits the bed.
Also, who would ever want to adjust volume levels for individual speakers? Every huddle is fucking torture.
If only that would be the worst. Someone over at M$ had the glorious idea to set up a different admin center for every fucking thing. Sometimes they interconnect, sometimes you can edit user in several admin centers, some things you can only edit in a particular one. You’re searching for specific settings over and over. And if that dumpster fire of bullshittery isn’t enough they randomly change the naming of everything or the position of menus without any apparent reason. So the knowledge you gained where certain settings goes to waste and you have to start all over again. Damn you Microsoft. If I’ll ever find out who’s responsible for that shit I’ll cut your head off and shit down your neck.
Edit: Just take a look at msportals.io to see how bad it has gotten. For my daily business I need several of M365 and Azure IT Admin portals. I hate it. I fucking hate it.
The only admin portal I’ve encountered that is more circular used to be Duo. That seems to have improved since, but I used to spend 40m trying to find an essential section and looping through links without getting there.
The point is to allow people to read and edit files without being able to download and take off with it, which would be necessary to open the document in its dedicated fat client.
Who tf thought I’d ever want to edit a spreadsheet in a chat application anyway?
Yet, I can’t point/draw on the screen somebody shares (at least on Mac)

Such a basic feature.

I’m on macOS, it does work while screen sharing in that it zooms in on my monitor, but it doesn’t zoom in the shared screen.

I can hate two things at once. You act like it’s hard.

You forgot about the few random settings that can only be changed with powershell for some reason!
Then they change how you use powershell

If that’s not shit enough, they also keep renaming and completely overhauling those portals again and again.
