My work mandates it unfortunately.

They mandate the browser you use? Seems a little overbearing.

Our website works best with Chrome so they want us to use Chrome. Blame the people we outsource to in India, I guess.

Use Vivaldi then. It's Chromium based, but they care about privacy and there's tons of ways to configure it

You have no idea.

For starters, Teams doesn't work in Firefox. And good luck convincing your company (or its clients) to stop using Teams. And the native teams client on Linux is even worse than using it in the browser.

Teams does work in FF. I use it quite frequently.

Weird, even on Linux? Last time I tried, it told me to install chrome.

Not sure about on Linux, I use Windows. I know screen sharing used to not work well (or at all?) on FF, but that's been working great recently.

Could be worse: Your office could be mandating (shudder) Microsoft Edge.
