Teams apparently can't call when using Firefox
Teams also doesn't support multiple "work" accounts, so I had to boot up a laptop to accept the call. ๐คท

I've been open minded to it but got my first impression of it in the wild recently when we had a meeting with an intl supplier that uses it, and have to agree it sucked. Aside from the organiser being late, everyone else was ready to start, but other parties on supplier end could not approve our entry because they didn't set the meeting. Apparently we could work around it if we created Microsoft accounts.within 30 seconds I started an instant Google meet and sent them a pre-approved link to join, and upon joining the call they expressed surprise about how easy that was.
You could have also tried with jitsi since it is foss and doesn't require an account.
Yeah, just the company uses G Suite so I defaulted to the platform my boss was comfortable with. Comment not intended to promote Google products
That's good. Better that you used this because as you said, they might be more comfortable.
