    The important bit:

    Those joining from unsupported platforms will be automatically placed in audio-only mode to protect shared content.

    And I presume everything except Windows 11 Teams will be considered “unsupported”.

      I used to be able to join teams meetings in the browser version of teams from my Linux machine. I did my last job interview this way

          I use Edge on Linux for working with Microsoft stuff on my corporate laptop. For everything else I use Firefox there. Privacy preserved, basically.

            only if the browser cannot run in the background, and it cannot access any of your fikes, the DBus of your regular user’s session, and other facilities

              You lock it with flatpak as much as you can. Also, don’t keep it running if not needed.

                Also, don’t keep it running if not needed.

                can you enforce that with flatpak? I often see the notification that “X program is still running in the background” or something similar, but the flatpak permission settings did not seem to have such a setting

          My workplace barely groks opportunity cost on their main product, and I’m not responsible for the IT. When it breaks constantly, I say “yeah we know it breaks like this, get them to fix it.”

          Not my circus, I just stamp the tickets.

      I don’t know to what extent they’ll go, but yes, this and the Advanced Chat Privacy in WhatsApp are just user locking moves.
