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)

Show HN: Dillo 3.1.0 released after 9 years
Dillo Plus supports external media playback (https://github.com/crossbowerbt/dillo-plus/#external-media-p...), maybe it could be backported to Dillo?

Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
There are many, many, many web browsers that are not corporate-controlled. Some of my favourites lately are the Argonaut Constellation [0] – mostly because of the interesting technical decisions going in the development (particularly the CSS and the Haskell), but also because Rhapsode is already better than eSpeakNG + AT-SPI2 + Firefox.
There's also the venerable lynx, and elinks (which I reluctantly admit is better than lynx, even if I don't use it much), and Dillo+ [1] (a fork / continuation of Dillo that supports Gopher and Gemini). And could I forget NetSurf, with its graph-y history navigation? And of course, Ladybird, [2] probably the best-funded of the lot.
These are just the ones I've heard of. There are surely dozens more you'd be interested in, and thousands of little hobby projects. Why not try making your own web browser?
