Teams also doesn't support multiple "work" accounts, so I had to boot up a laptop to accept the call. ๐คท

If there was a known security exploit, it would have been patched. Everything works, so nothing essential is missing. The way I see it, it's yet another attempt to manipulate users into switching away from open standards.
Also, it's a multi billion dollar company, can they really not afford to put a couple of devs to work on changing a few lines of code to fix whatever small incompatibility there may be?
But we don't know if Microsoft can fix it, as it's most likely on Firefox's end.
You really don't want to lose this argument do you? As a software engineer myself, I can assure you that that's complete bullshit.
Teams is nothing special, it doesn't intrinsically require any functionality only available in Chromium. It isn't some weird magical piece of software that can't be made work strictly using standard web protocols and features, something that, apparently, it already does because it does work if you trick it. It's not even cutting edge, chat and video conferencing web apps have been around for ages at this point, many were implemented years back with only a fraction of what's available today. They worked everywhere and still do. Microsoft is perfectly capable of making it work, because it can.
And If there was a known security exploit, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PATCHED. It doesn't matter if it's on Microsoft's end or Firefox's end.
The only reason they don't make it work on Firefox by default is because they don't want you to use it on Firefox, that's it.
You seem to not want to lose either. I'm a software developer myself who specializes in websites. If Microsoft knows a severe exploit, they probably wouldn't go around telling everybody exactly how to exploit it, would they? And we don't know that it works perfectly, just that it works enough to use it.
They'd disclose it to Mozilla and the Firefox team if they knew. It would make no sense for them not to. Why are you so obstinate when it comes to this exploit theory, it's the least likely reason you could pick for them not to support it.
How do we know they didn't and are just waiting for mozilla to fix it? All of this is speculation, including the shit about it being Microsoft wanting you to use their browser. This isn't that unlikely either.
Look, this is going nowhere, I give up. If you aren't going to be reasonable, I'm not gonna waste my time discussing this. If you don't want to listen, fine. Stick to your uninformed and unreasonable opinions and be happy.
