Not just nightly. Stable is blocked as well. Seems we're in the next IE-era.

Then there is an error. Teams supports FF stable, they have even made efforts to improve support https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=Firefox https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filter...

  both nighly and stable ff is broken - my mother couldn't access her meeting in Firefox the other day because Teams said "you only have to use Edge or Chrome"
  - AshamedCaptain 4y ago
    This is absolutely true. There are some types of meetings (likely the ones which are MS Stream-based -- but as a plain user this is impossible to detect) where upon joining you will get the dreaded message about incompatible browser.

  I don't know what is "support" for them, but I've never been able to make calls in it. Only the chat function works.
  - warner25 4y ago
    That's what I was thinking too. I have to keep Chrome installed on my Linux machine exclusively to use Teams for voice and video calls, since calls have never been possible in Firefox and the Linux desktop client is so buggy.

      Linux desktop client seems to be dead; as of last week, trying to download the deb or rpm package results into 404.

The posted link is to the error page. https://teams.microsoft.com https://teams.microsoft.com works in FF stable.

  Nope - "We're sorry—we've run into an issue."

  Oh wow, I clicked on that link on mobile and was unable to go back. Pressing the back button just redirected to the same page over and over again. Usually you only see that on malicious ad sites.
  - Gare 4y ago
    If you don't know already, long press on the back button solves the problem.
  - dpkirchner 4y ago
    Microsoft's largely useless support site does the same thing. There's something weird afoot in that organization.
  - foepys 4y ago
    Microsoft's tech forum pages have been highjacking the back button for years now. It's really despicable...

  Doesn't work on stable 110.0.1 (64-bit).
- runxel 4y ago
  Nope, it doesn't. FF stable on MacOS. Teams is, was, and will be the absolut worst. They only won, because it's bundled into MSO.

  The register is still there but they're really pro-big business this time around. Recently there was an piece about how happy we should be with all the corporate Linuxes. Bow to our benefactors :)

I can use Teams on the stable version without any issues. You might have cross-origin cookies disabled, which will stop Teams from working. PS. FF:v110.0.1 (64-bit), macOS: 13.2.1.
- hank_z 4y ago
  Oops, sorry. I was using the Office 365 Teams (teams.microsoft.com), which runs ok on FF. I can confirm the Teams for the personal account (https://teams.live.com/_#/unsupportedBrowser https://teams.live.com/_#/unsupportedBrowser) is not supported in FF.
- askonomm 4y ago
  Those cookies are disabled by default in Firefox. Are you saying that to successfully use Teams one has to alter their browser configuration to make it _less secure_?
  - hank_z 4y ago
    I believe it's website specific. Office 365 Teams (teams.microsoft.com) will request users to grant certain permissions when it's visited.

  Doesn’t work in Safari on default settings either, it complains about disabling tracking prevention. No thanks. Also, Safari’s tracking prevention is almost 6 years old by now, support it already. So more like Chromium Wide Web.
