> It's really the one popular application out there that seems to have absolutely no redeeming factors, and I'm constantly confused by why it has the uptake it has.

I attribute the uptake it has solely to a lot of companies already working with Office 365 (Outlook, Word, Excel, etc) and getting Teams for free -- so why pay for another chat app?
