That's been within the last year I think - I too have been using Linux and Firefox for calls in Teams meetings from 2020 to last year when I had to move to the Teams Linux client (which they're deprecating, so having to move to Chrome or Edge).

Yes, they broke this somewhat recently. Video &c. doesn't work in Chromium either.

So this means that I pull my customers into a competitor product, and they also get to hear me badmouth Teams if I find an opportunity to do so.

Everyone I work with is constantly badmouthing Teams. It's buggy and flakey and they killed Linux support which my company actually made use of. Either way, it doesn't matter since it's bundled. Literally killed any chance of competition getting a fair shake at our usage.

Teams doesn't have to be better, they're just bundled.

and didn't really maintain for at least the last 2 years either

(it basically ran a often very outdated version of the web app + some AFIK unnecessary and buggy custom audio handling)
