  How about intentional incompetence

  Teams in browser is the only way that I use it either, and it isn’t “broken” like it used to be, but you need to use a Chromium based browser. This is typical Microsoft bullshit with only truly supporting “their”, luckily they don’t actually make an actual browser anymore so you can use any of the better Chromium browsers.

    so, it’s broken. Either buggy, or just straight up not follow common web standards

      Well, it used to be broken on ALL browsers in Linux, so let’s just go with less broken, which is a high mark for most MS software. MS and following standards are like oil and water.

    I surprisingly haven’t had any issues using Teams on Firefox but maybe I’m just lucky…? Been using it for months now after uninstalling the app.

      I had nothing BUT problems with it, but I haven’t tried it in about six months as I started using Teams it in a chromium based browser. I only need to use Teams when working with strictly MS focused companies (i.e. not ours), so it isn’t a daily hassle anyway.

        I too had problems and used a chromium just for teams, but those problems seems to have gone away. It’s terribly slow to load up and join in a Firefox but perhaps that is normal, and then it works
