why does teams now replace the normal close / min / max buttons on macos:

with:

when sharing your desktop (or window).

this is the same icon that is shown in the notification bar when screen sharing, but annoyingly replaces the window chrome... and teams is the only application to do this.

OBS studio (which records / captures the desktop) does not do this.

Zoom does not do this...

only microsoft.

why?

please remove this annoyance.

    Hey Microsoft,

    DON'T CHANGE BEHAVIOR OF OTHER OPERATING SYSTEM GUI !!!

    Microsoft can rape its own OS and annoy the users of the junk Windows system. Mac users pay a lot of money for the Mac GUI to be stable, functional and consistent. It cannot be that Microsoft once again thinks it knows better and rapes Mac OSX users with some junk.

    I am having the same problem in an important meeting with a client!

    I got nervous because I didn't know how to close the damn window when I was showing him images one by one from a folder.

    DEAR MICROSOFT, STOP CHANGING THINGS AND GET FIRED THE PEOPLE THAT ARE DOING THIS RIDICULOUS UPDATES. OH MY F GOOOD...
