I had the fun experience recently of having to rename a bunch of files that happened to have a # in the filename, since that character is forbidden in filenames that are uploaded into teams.
Additionally, you can't seem to attach a .json file... though renaming it to .json.txt works. It's frustrating for sure.
Thankfully they finally fixed some issues recently so I can copy chats out of Teams without running into too many problems.
The most frustrating and immediate drawback is the low information density. It's gotten slightly better, but I can still see only about 20% of the information in a chat that I can with Slack.
Also the automatic conversion of things like ;) to animated emoji... please give me an option to turn this off. You have to ctrl+z afterwards to just use the text.

Ran into something very similar during my (very) short stint doing Sharepoint development. I'm guessing it's some sort of limitation burried deep in some default MS code somewhere.
- joshschreuder 7y agoOne of the comments above says Teams sets up a Sharepoint site for each team to upload files, so it's probably the same limitation.
