Teams also doesn't support multiple "work" accounts, so I had to boot up a laptop to accept the call. π€·
Well they are just lying, it works fine with Firefox and has worked fine for years. I live in the EU though. Sucks to be american these days, I guess?
These days? It's sucked to be an American for decades.
Better than being in a third world country ig. But it's frustrating, because our issues are generally fueled by greed and were entirely preventable
As I saw somebody once say, "The US is a 3rd world country in a Prada belt." If we didn't have that big chunk of post-WW2 money keeping our economy chugging along all these years, we probably wouldn't look all that different from them.
Its cool how all these companies are allowed to just lie to you about their products functionality.
If you use Firefox, you are a communist; and if you are a communist why would you need the glorious tools of corporate communication? Just make do with rotten turnips as Lenin intended
This whooshed a lot o' folks.
This is not mildly infuriating this is the free internet being eroded through Googleβs control of Chrome
No it seriously means the feature isn't available yet in the browser. Like there is a part of Firefox missing that they need to use the website. Basically all websites are coded in HTML, css, and js or a form of that. The browser controls them and the code operates out of it. If a feature is on chrome and chromium but not Firefox, the site won't work on Firefox. Not sure exactly what is missing but it is mozillas fault not Microsoft.
Firefox implements everything the various web standards require. There are a few non standard features that Chromium implements that certain websites take advantage of, but the fact that their code isn't portable is not Firefox's fault. As for Teams... Microsoft's just being a dick: if you change the user agent it works just fine.
And maybe Microsoft requires it. Also the could be more under the surface we don't know about with the user agent, where it might have some kind of security exploit or something.
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.
Corporate shill energy all the way through this comment thread
This team block is so agressive to firefox users that it's literaly hardcoded as if web browser firefox then deny.
You cam override that by changing a parameter in firefox to advertise itself as another we browser. I don't remeber how i did it but, once i had to use firefox and i just changed that stting in order to advertise me to the host as a edge browser. With that changed i could use teams as normal.
Epic drm.
When I'd search "(location) weather" on Google (e: in Chrome) and I'd get a really nice at a glance forecast right on top. Do the same thing in Firefox and I'd get a whole bunch of weather websites I could go to. The former obviously being a better, more direct experience. I found an extension that fools Google into thinking it's Chrome and all works fine with that.
I'm amazed if this doesn't violate some antitrust regulation
