    We are happy to share that Electron 10 is rolling out to the public ring now, so you should notice improvements. We expect overall performance of Teams to improve even further with upcoming fixes around the calling and meeting features We will share another update as soon as we are able to.

    @Alex
    Electron 10? 12 is stable as we speak. Is Teams that far behind?

    Thank you for your feedback. We are continually looking to bring performance boosts to the Mac Client, including improvements with Electron 10 that are releasing. We are also aggressively addressing other areas of performance around the Mac client

    Application load time is something we are continuously working to improve, and the team is hard at work on fixes. We have validated a recent regression in application launch time that will be fixed in the coming weeks.

    Feature teams have been finding unique areas of improvement around crashes/hangs/lock ups of the client, and have been making small improvements through both proactive and reactive findings to help around reliability regressions. If you happen to see any unique issues, please let us know and we will continue to share updates as they become available.

    Thank you for your continued feedback. We are continuously improving the clients to use less memory and RAM.

    The upgrade to Electron 10 has rolled out fully to the public at this point. Telemetry and testing has shown that this is helping to improve memory performance on the client.

    We will continue to work on improvements, and will share more updates as they become available.

    For more details on how Teams currently uses memory, please visit https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/teams-memory-usage-perf.

    There are many things that are wrong here.
    * Changes takes forever to propegate.
    * In GUI (https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/policies/channels), only ONE policy setting is available.
    * PowerShell module(s) documentation lacks a lot of information. For instance, Set-CsTeamsChannelsPolicy has a parameter "AllowSharedChannelCreation" that is not documented anywhere. Google "AllowSharedChannelCreation" and you won't get any result at all.

    Or how about a Teams receiver app for mentioned TV OS-es? So that one simply chose a different output display for a ongoing meeting or call?

    This feature is still in the works. There was some adjustments to the overall strategy.
    I’ll try to get some additional details and share them with you.

    It would make sense to turn Teams into a PWA, which would then make it possible to distribute it through Microsoft Store.

    This would bring a lot of positive impact, like
    * Easier for users: True single experience across all platforms, screen resolutions and ratios.
    * Easier for developers: Less code to maintain for the developers, I believe.
    * Easier for sysadmins: Easier to deploy, less management overhead. Don't have to keep a MSI in Intune up to date, just use Microsoft Store for Business instead.
