Today I announced on the company wide Slack channel that, effectively immediately, we were rolling back to Windows XP. There were cheers! and then a lot of disappointment when I said it was just April fools Lmao

You’re right, but I’d use the word ‘trick’ over the word joke. There is no trick that would pass my scrutiny to be okay at work, that’s why I replied the way I did.
Jokes like one liners or what stand up comedians do are usually more acceptable in my eyes. I have yet to see a joke used for April fools. If you have an example please share and I might do it next year.
In the end, I really don’t care, if the joke/trick lands and no one was upset then take the win. You know your environment and are making it a better place.
