Purple-Teams: MS Teams Plugin for Pidgin
It took a while, but it's gotten pretty good again. Harder to get plugins running than it used to be, but now there's Slack, Matrix, Teams, and (shameless plug) GroupMe[1]. Works well enough for me these days :)

GitHub staff are required to use Teams by Sep 1, 2023
For those having to endure Teams, try it from Pidgin, where you can at least e.g. customize what notifications you get and using interface that doesn't use half your RAM: https://github.com/EionRobb/purple-teams

Mircosoft Teams desktop client on Linux is being retired and will be replaced by a progressive web app (running on Chrome/Edge).
It uses long-polling rather than polling for messages. There's a few bits that can be tricked into websockets though. I'm doing the long-polling method in the https://github.com/EionRobb/purple-teams teams plugin for Pidgin, but might switch to the websockets soon (to make the reverse webhooks websocket weirdness work for online/away statuses)
What are some alternatives?
