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.
All other MS services function fine on Firefox.
Which features I've never had an issue
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.
The custom background effects don't work on Firefox
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.
Good. Use it anyway, and bathe in their tears!
