Update…Per Microsoft’s instructions, disabled all tracking protections in Safari and requested desktop mode and it works. Their instructions say turn protections back on after using teams… 😐

Funny enough it works in Safari and not Edge…tho that may be Apple’s fault since all browsers are somewhat just versions of Safari, last I heard…

I work in the tech support field and Microsoft is making me want to quit and find a work that doesn't involve using Teams. I've never liked them very much and been a Linux user for over 20 years, but I still have to deal with them for work. However they're becoming increasingly difficult to tolerate.

They really really want Windows users to have a Microsoft account. I avoid that and prefer local accounts. But Microsoft likes to link my local account with my Microsoft account anyway, because I need to give it to them to play Minecraft on Windows. So now even if I didn't want to, my Windows account is showing the picture of my Microsoft/Windows Gaming account profile because I must have passed over a box to uncheck somewhere while logging into Windows Gaming to play Minecraft... mildly infuriating Microsoft.

I used a personal laptop for work a few times and accidentally connected my OneDrive to my corporate account. Again, I must have misunderstood the configuration and login process because it synced (more like moved) all my personal files on my work's OneDrive. Mildly infuriating Microsoft.

Same personal laptop used for work sometimes. I use Edge specifically to separate work from personal browsing and somehow, again, I logged in somewhere with my work account and it synced all my personal browsing history and saved passwords from a different browser, into my "Edge for business" online thigny. So when I was using Edge at work, on my work computer, it was suggesting me logins and passwords from my personal browser that I use on different computers. Mildly infuriating Microsoft.

Teams, OneDrive, Edge for business, their subscription model, forcing Microsoft accounts... individually they are mildly infuriating but combined together, let's say it's a powerful generator of rolling eyes.
