Asana used to sometimes have textareas that would take a full three seconds to display each key press. On then-current MacBook pros.

Never underestimate the ability of shitware vendors to make supercomputers feel slower than an 8086. These days it usually involves JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

I had the exact same feeling. Can't tell if it's real or a joke. It's not only outrageous for privacy, but also very bad engineering.

It is the kind of engineering Teams feels like.
