My whole dev group uses Linux and Teams is a hot mess for us. We have to run the PWA through Chrome to get things to work and even then it’s hit or miss.
Ooh, that’s a good suggestion to try, too! My specific problem with teams in the browser is the feedback cancelation bits. When I am unmuted, the people I’m chatting with hear themselves echoed. Using the full teams app in a windows VM with my webcam piped to the windows VM works fine. I’ll try the AUR teams first, but if that doesn’t work I’ll look into waydroid, too. Thanks!
Nice! I’ll give it a try. I tried the web version through Firefox and it was unusable. I was able to join a meeting, but as soon as I turned on my mic, my opponents freaked out, saying their sounds were echoing back to them. Firefox + web teams was not doing any noise cancellation between speakers and mic.
Fun Fact, Teams under Linux works way better than under Windows…
That’s the exact opposite of what I’ve read in most linux threads on here. Most people seem to complain about teams not working at all under Linux.
FTFY.
I use Arch btw.
me too…
Teams not working at all is already way better in my opinion
I tried it about 2 years ago and it was a fucking omnishambles on Linux. I presume it has improved since then…

The PWA? Shouldn’t it work the same everywhere?
No, the arch package, i think they use the Debian one.
Wait, what? I thought they killed Teams for Linux a few years back. I’ve been piping my Webcam to a Windows VM just so I can run Teams and Outlook.
Could teams run in waydroid? That would be a bit lighter if it could.

the AUR teams for arch works fine for me…
