From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Microsoft Edge was a recent surprise. It's surprising both that Microsoft would create it and that any Linux users would run it. Since its Chromium based, there should be no need for developers to test Edge separately.
You can also get Teams on Linux
Really? All I've seen is a Flatpak that's really just a wrapped web view. Is there now a native version of Teams for Linux?
Hmm, seems that you might be right. I haven’t tried but remember that there were both rpm and dep packages, however it looks like after Teams 2.0 came, the native packages are no longer a thing.
