Why not? I have a variety of pieces of commercial software on my debian workstation, including MS Teams. Most of them are snaps. What is the specific problem you think might prevent that?

Teams is Electron, is it not?

  No. Edge Webview

    Not yet. WebView2 is not available on Mac+Linux yet (but that’s coming).
  - criddell 5y ago
    That's basically the same thing. It's still a web app (which makes sense).

    Teams 1 is electron, teams 2 will apparently be based on edge webview...

  Err ... looks like it is for now, though they are dropping it apparently Most of the commercial apps I use appear to be electron or java, or at least have components in those (zoom, spotify, jetbrains tools, teams). Regardless of OS - I use them across MacOS, Linux and Windows. So I guess these seem to be the easiest ways to target multiple platforms. These programs can use acceleration, print, whatever AFAICT. Zoom happily uses multiple screens. Steam also distributes native games which GPU-accelerate, as well as using stuff like proton for windows compatibility. Again, what is it you think might be the particular problem?
