Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    I don't switch to linux because I need to use "breakout rooms" in Teams on a daily basis and they disabled that for linux.

    [–] elvith@feddit.org 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    WTF?

    I mean, my work PC is managed by the company and thus a Windows device, but why disable that feature? Yes, it somewhat makes sense if you see it like "we don't want other OS to have all features to make costumers less likely to switch" BUT Teams on Mac has some unique features that haven't been ported to windows and are still exclusively available on Mac, so...?!

    They stopped supporting Teams on Linux entirely. Linux users are supposed to run Teams in a browser and the browser version lacks certain features, even things like custom background images; you can only use the ones provided by Microsoft.

    I use an unofficial client, which seems to be based on the old official one. That gives me most of the functionality back.

    [–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    Which client is that and where can I find it?

    https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux

    It's also on Flathub and the AUR. And the Snap store, if you use that for some reason.

    that's weird. does that not work in the browser either?

    [–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    I don't think it ever worked in the browser. Like all office apps, the browser version is limited
