  • It is the absolute truth when I say to you that the green Teams icon is one of the highlights of switching my work machine to Linux.

    Once we got the clear from IT to dual boot (just had to match the hostnames to our Dell Service Tags so they could still identify the developer PCs on the network), Teams became a webpage in Firefox just like the rest of the Microsoft applications. So even when we are all in the office, it is totally normal for somebody to show as being idle for the last 10 minutes or the last hour.

    There’s one guy in another country (team is split between two continents) that has clearly set it up so that he’s green 24/7, but everybody else is mostly “idle” because we aren’t doing things in the Teams browser tab. It’s nice to just not worry about it, especially on days I work from home.
