Status pages are nerd tools. Anyone that says otherwise is living in a bubble. Pretending momentarily that this is not true, you wouldn’t go to a status page if you thought that everything was fine. Not sure what is warranting such a kneejerk defence… The implication is that the infra required to notify of an outage is lesser/different than what’s required to…run Teams. Publish it on DNS!

If you think everything is fine, presumably that's because every metric you have available is indicating fine-ness. That's probably sufficient for most users. There'll be some edge cases, but the brief write-up in some obscure IT online journal should suffice to restore anyone's slightly damaged reputation regarding a torpid non-committal response. I'd also assume if you're using Microsoft Teams it's because someone else has determined that you shall use it. I expect that any semi-informed, mildly IT literate Microsoft Teams user has a starting position of 'low expectations'. Anyway, parent was suggesting an in-app message to indicate some issues, so my initial question stands - how do you expediently send an instant message to a user to advise them that your instant messaging app is having a bad day?
