Red Hat considers Xorg “deprecated” and will remove it in the next RHEL
Screen sharing seems to be a difficult problem to resolve. Zoom only just resolved this recently[1], Webex has been promising a fix for a while[2], and Skype still hasn't done anything[3].

If the device still works in the os and just not in skype. I would try the flatpak package. https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.skype.Client

Can we have an objective, non-FUD, user-centric comparison/discussion of Snap and Flatpak for 2021?
I have no idea if that is true or not, I haven't used Skype for more than a decade. But, an app running as a Flatpak can't directly create files in /etc/ even if that directory was exposed in the sandbox (which it isn't in the Skype flatpak, as you can see here), just like any other process running as a non-root user can't create files in /etc/ (unless your permissions on /etc/ are severely messed up). So if what you claim is true, it has nothing to do with Flatpak's sandbox or with portals. And since in the default configuration the pulseaudio daemon (which is running outside the sandbox) does not run as root either, I severly doubt that what you claim here is true at all.

Ad blockers struggle under Chrome's new rules
Teams for Linux client (beta) just popped up in the Fedora software center. Haven't used it so I can't vouch for it being feature complete. Also available as a flatpak.

GLIBC_2.34 not found (required by /app/extra/xxx)
I decided to make a flatpak to XClicker, taking inspiration from https://github.com/flathub/com.microsoft.Teams First I made it for v1.3.1 which worked perfectly fine. Then when I released v1.3.2 and made the flatpak use that instead. Now it complains about /app/extra/usr/bin/xclicker: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version \GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /app/extra/usr/bin/xclicker)`

Wayland state
Teams should work - the flatpak at least, because the official one is still broken thanks to new glibc, for screensharing make sure that xdg-desktop-portal-gnome is installed and you might still need to set --enable-usermedia-screen-capturing --enable-features=WebRTCPipeWireCapturer as options for teams. Don't know if this has changed.

MS Teams desktop app not working since update
I recommend the flatpak. It's on top of a stable base. So system upgrades won't harm it in any way. There is no need to hold back or fight by just using this one. :)

Comparison of Fedora Flatpaks and Flathub remotes
I am a little bit confused now. I see there are proprietary applications in Flathub website like Teams. But anyway, I'm not against hosting proprietary applications in Flathub. But I'm confused about the whole fact.

Which side are you on?
Teams is available on Linux Flat pack: https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.microsoft.Teams Snap: https://snapcraft.io/teams AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/teams/
- Why Manjaro Gnome is the best distro for a modern laptop IMHO
-
Installing .deb on Arch based systems
Why not use a flatpak? You could also use the AUR package but I'd advice against that on Manjaro. AUR packages are made with the assumption that they will be used on Arch not Manjaro which might cause dependency issues.
