My laptop battery life drops form 9 hours to 3 when teams is open. At this point it should be considered harmful for the environment.

I went looking for an alternative client but as far as I can tell it doesn’t exist. I would love an extremely lightweight (even CLI) implementation I could use for chat and kick up the hog sized full client for calls or whatever.

Related: Anyone having Azure service bus queue issues? I'm finding that, in the last month or so, an instance will spin trying to connect to a service bus queue until it's rebooted or the service recycled.

Sydney, Aus. Been down for a few hours now.

Yep someone I know had to revert to the telephone (which is a better UX always anyway :-))

I don't have a desk phone, so email was first option, nipping downstairs to visit them was the follow-up option. Face-to-face interaction wins the UX wars - although it can be a rarely available option.
