I've never run across any of that. There must be some implementation issue that affects some companies and not others, because the 2 places I've worked since Teams took over everything have been flawless on all of that (except for Linux- and I really don't care about that from a business perspective where everyone is going to use Windows).

Is your company the one with the golden fax machine that always flawlessly sends an recieves?

No seriously. We are a tech heavy company. The only not tech savvy persons are law and HR (in numbers: two people). Same for most of our customers. And I hear this shit break left and right several times a day. I wonder what your company does right that nearly every other one does wrong. Probably restricting this bloatware enough to make it work.

I work in municipal government.

Microsoft does have a separate government- specific subscription with slightly different features, and that may be part of it.

The most annoying part of the government system is that it only allows one MS account to be logged in on a mobile device, so for people with accounts in multiple municipalities (e.g. county officials needing access to permitting data from several cities), they need a different device for each system.
