FWIW, I don't know if you read my e-mail but teams-on-linux is not a MS product.
As I mentioned, "I found an open source project on github for MS Teams called
teams-for-linux at
https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux which I have found is smaller than the
dud made available by MS, and works reasonably well
and definitely better than the official MS one. RPMs are available here:
https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux/releases but I think
no repo."
It is far better than the MS linux version. Of course, only if one has to actually use
it. Most importantly, it allows for individual
window-sharing which is not possible on the clients for linux and MacOS released by MS. I
hope that this helps those for whom not getting rid
of MS Teams is not an option.

Yes I did read your email before responding. I will stick with the web

Just wanted to add my comments to using it.
