Hi, So, I wanted to dig up this old thread because a couple of weeks ago, I found an open source project on github for MS Teams called teams-for-linux at https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux which I have found is smaller than the dud made available by MS, and works reasonably well and definitely better than the official MS one. RPMs are available here: https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux/releases but I think no repo.
Hopefully, this is helpful to those who need to use MS Teams.
