I work in a corporation with an IT-department that is all in on whatever Microsoft is offering. My team has for some time gotten more and more autonomy in tooling as IT is overloaded and forced to relinquish some control, but we still rely on them for supplying compliant machines that have access to our resources.

I requested a Linux machine just over 5 months ago, and I finally got it this week. It is running Ubuntu with GNOME, not my first choice, but the only thing that is Microsoft Intune compliant as far as I know.

So far it is such a relief. A better specced machine with less bloat running on it. It should be far between any OOM-issue I get now… Slightly annoying having to use Edge for any service requiring corporate SSO, but I’ll swallow that pill…

      Yes. Using it through Edge with no issues so far.

      Internal team communication goes outside of Teams though (we self-host Mattermost).

      ETA: No more issues than the native app under Win11, I meant to say.

        I use flatpak version of teams-for-linux which is propably just electron app, but it works surprisingly well, no issues and almost always up to date :)
