Franciscan monastery and school
gollark: My school uses MS Teams and it does mostly work okay, except that apparently they don't support Firefox properly, and it's weird and glitchy at times. Also, it uses more RAM than Discord somehow.
gollark: I wonder why they decided to make TOSLINK optical. I don't know of any other consumer fiber-optic connection things around.
gollark: The description on the Amazon page I found implies they do the opposite thing.
gollark: It's not like it's busy and active every minute of the day or something.
