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)

Bottles – Easily run Windows software on Linux
I use https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux . It's "just" a wrapper around the PWA but a very decent one at that.

Unofficial and not Microsoft supported, but might be an alternative to Microsoft's official PWA. How do the two compare in your experience with them?

Anyone having issues sharing screen/window on PWA Microsoft Teams, the option is just not there anymore. I have to quickly turn my Windows PC just to avoid any issues with my boss. I tried both X11 and Wayland, same result.
You can try the unofficial client Teams for Linux. It's available as a Flatpak and I didn't have any issues sharing my screen with it. https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

GitHub staff are required to use Teams by Sep 1, 2023
That always frustrated me, even more-so considering how that volunteer-built package I mentioned (https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux - an Electron build of the web app, nothing flashy but does the job just fine) does support screen sharing. I haven’t checked whether it supports backgrounds as I only use voice when on calls, but I’m guessing it does if the browser variant does.
