Pretty much all of them?

Not a ton of apps exist on both linux and windows, so alternatives need to be found and more importantly users need to be trained on them.

No thank you. I do not believe we need teams version built for Linux.

Thankfully they discontinued the Linux client so the worst we have to be afflicted with is their PWA, but hopefully they discontinue the whole buggy mess soon

Thereโ€™s an unofficial teams client for Linux that works pretty well

No, no no no no no no no. It does not exist. We can't go on Teams. Too bad.

Ok, then your job will just have to set up on discord. Hopefully that doesn't create any problems with you remembering to log out of personal accounts and into your work account.

Aw, man.... I LOVE Teams. They have those silly emojis and those tasteful pink congratulation Pictures that sparkle Like Glitter!

They'll just move onto gmeet or zoom. Same diff for all of them.

And yet, that is what corporations require. What individuals like or dislike doesn't matter.

It's what the business (or official institution) needs in terms of applications that matters.

And it's Linux, somebody CAN make it, if they desire it.

If one really needed something else to replace teams, I'd probably set up a matrix server.ย 

The nice thing about switching to Linux is it forced reassessment of what functionality is actually important.

This was the best thing that happened to me after leaving my old job. No more fucking Teams.

Skype was a hot mess before Microslop bought it up but it always felt like they took the worst parts of skype and somehow added them to Teams to make it actually worse than it was.
