For me, it was perhaps simple-scan, a very simple and efficient GUI to scan documents. I used it with my Brother printer / scanner and it works like a charm. Especially since I do not scan stuff often, so a program with more complex UI would have the effect that I forget how to use it until the next time.

      That’s a little less surprising to me. Organizations are likely to pick competing communication software if Teams is not available to everyone. Web browsers are generally interoperable after Microsoft lost the war to popularize one that wasn’t.

      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.

          That’s not been my experience. It may be using a web view under the hood, but the functionality is quite different. Additional features, breaking the video call out of the primary pane, etc. To suggest that they’re essentially the same is not accurate.

            I see literally no difference between the Windows, Mac, and Linux versions except 2 shortcomings on Linux:

            1. Camera support is abysmal and uses the lowest resolution
            2. No echo cancellation, so I need headphones.
