Teams v2 won't use Electron[1]; but for now you can get a small performance boost by just opening Teams using a modern web browser (Edge, Chrome, Firefox) at https://teams.microsoft.com/ https://teams.microsoft.com/ -- you can even set up a PWA-type app shortcut.
You can uninstall the client after that. I think there's maybe one feature (popout chat windows) that the client has which you can't get in the browser.

- benjamir 5y agoUntil recently Firefox releases had all kind of problems (e.g. hardware enumeration) That's why we recommended Chromium/Chrome for at our faculty for Jitsi usage I'm a Firefox (beta) user myself, but I would rather try another browser before blaming a webapp -- many issues.
- approxim8ion 5y agoas far as I know, the web client doesn't let you control someone else's desktop when they are sharing their screen. which is something I do regularly.
