Does Microsoft not have the capability to do this? Can't set reminders. Can't message self (private). Can't believe I would ever switch over to Teams from Slack.

Please .... messages to yourself is sneaky useful. Used to do this on Slack and it made moving non-sensitive files wicked simple.
In the meantime, I just creating a private channel and only invited myself... which is basically doing the same thing we are asking for. Just under channels instead of chat.

This would be extremely useful for jotting down personal notes and sharing files with myself. Did this all the time on Slack and am missing having this feature on Teams.

Yes! Allowing this would mean Teams is as integral to our daily life as IMessage (where i commonly text myself live notes while talking to customers)

+1 - yes pls - however as someone noted, you can create "Team Me" - private team, don't add anyone - and then you can discuss things with yourself.

+1 I had to create a private group just so I could call the group and test screen sharing, super annoying.

This is a nice feature in Slack. I use it to make notes or transfer files when I don't want to setup network shares. However, you can achieve the same functionality by creating a private Team. Just don't add anyone else to the team you create.

Why not open source Teams? We'll fix it ;)
