    I am forced to use Chromium on my work laptop because MS Teams doesn’t work (all the features) on Firefox.

    Edit: I should elaborate this a bit. There are 2 reasons why I use Chromium on my machine.

    1. If I face a problem, company tech team only knows Chrome and they start crying when I open Firefox.
    2. On Linux, the official way to use Teams is through a web-app and Firefox doesn’t support PWAs.

    All other MS services function fine on Firefox.

        Same. I use furefox for everything* at work, despite everything being heavily integrated with teams, sharepoint, et.al.

        *: The only thing that doesn’t work with firefox is this inhouse web service that hasn’t been updated since 2017. It’s about to be replaced anyway, so nobody bothered to fix/update it.

        Simple one-to-one calling is disabled saying it’s only available on Chrome. I’m pretty sure it’s recent since I had calls a few months back on Firefox. I’m also sure that it’s not some group policy since I’m on Ubuntu without any sort of ActiveDirectory so it’s a pure browser issue. Also, they force the old UI in Firefox due to some reason. Typical BS from Microsoft.

      I use Firefox as my primary browser and run the teams app.

      they start crying when I open Firefox.

      Good. Use it anyway, and bathe in their tears!
