What does HackerNews think of teams-for-linux?

I've never used this but apparently this wrapper is useful for linux people: https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

I use https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux . It's "just" a wrapper around the PWA but a very decent one at that.

There is also: https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

That always frustrated me, even more-so considering how that volunteer-built package I mentioned (https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux - an Electron build of the web app, nothing flashy but does the job just fine) does support screen sharing. I haven’t checked whether it supports backgrounds as I only use voice when on calls, but I’m guessing it does if the browser variant does.

Re: video input - does the same problem occur when using the (unofficial, in maintenance-only mode) teams-for-linux[1] client?

(I haven't tried using the Windows version under Wine, sorry)

Try the unofficial client: https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

I had the exact same problem - as others have already said, its a problem with electron not having Wayland support. I solved it in two different ways:

- An unofficial Teams app (https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux) which works great - screen sharing works without problems, no crashing, and native notifications!.

- Use teams in qutebrowser: the dev (The-Compiler) added support for screensharing and it works great. Just like the unofficial app above, it also has native notifications, not the weird popup notifications of the official app.

It basically has been via: https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux
