the emojis would be fine, if they used standard naming schemes like everyone else does…but for some ungodly reason they don’t adhere to standard nomenclature, so good fuckin luck finding the one you’re looking for!
also: WHY is the shortcut for emojis a fucking parenthesis??? why isn’t it a colon like in damn near every other app???
this is the worst thing about teams:
it forces you to re-learn chat app standards that have been in place for well over a decade, and it does so for abso-fucking-lutely no good reason!

Vendor lock-in. The next generation will demand teams because they cannot get used to other shortcuts.
i mean…that certainly is an explanation, but it’s a shit strategy:
there are a lot of objectively false names for emojis, you can’t expect people to get used to that…
“eyeroll” for example is called “bored”…which makes absolutely no sense. (at least in german, maybe it’s less bad in english)
I don’t see that ever leading to vendor lock-in, just perpetual frustration…
