They want to force people to use the crappy Electron app instead I guess. It is a pity that they don't just use Catalyst to port the iOS app to MacOS.
Got a tip for us?

I use the browser version, out of interest, what feature you can't do with the web app?
Microsoft Teams Features by platform - Microsoft Support
Get started with Teams options that are available for desktop, web, and mobile in Microsoft Teams. Select a feature or area to get the details for your platform.
Thanks for this, it looks like I don't need most features that requires the desktop app. But good luck to you to get it soon.Microsoft Teams Features by platform - Microsoft Support

Oh finally, thanks for this, been waiting for it.
Trying to cut myself off from as many external drives as possible ... I just use the iCloud for most of my personal things and even some work files. I don't have to use the OneDrive, Teams ... or GoogleDrive or DropBox. The on-line teaching at our university employs Zoom (zoom.us app on my iMac) and they use Nextcloud for the file exchange (via my Safari browser). When I get Microsoft docs they open into the Pages app and then I re-export after my changes to a .docx to send it along. Seems to work fine. I mean most of what I do is not that complicated to cause any issues. Also, I get a lot of pdfs to read so I use Preview and pass along the docs as pdfs sometimes annotating. I use the Numbers spreadsheet application a lot, too. Everything seems to sync to that iCloud so I have my work files everywhere. I know, I am just a very basic user and many people are constrained by their work environment so they need all the other clouds and other native apps.
Now only if Teams would follow, it would be perfect!
Meh I doubt at this point they gonna do anything until fall of next year.. It just keeps eating my RAM alongside Citrix Workspace sigh.
They even know there's no noise suppression on the M1 Macs and do nothing about it or give a release date for the fix..
Doesn't even show up in the Roadmap... https://www.microsoft.com/pt-pt/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=Microsoft Teams,Mac,In development
At least One Drive will come out in Jan 2022.

Here's a link to their page:

Install Docker for Mac to get started. This guide covers system requirements, where to download, and instructions on how to install and update.
Not perfect, but use teams as a web app inside of microsoft edge as an apple native app. Most functions "work" though there are some challenges. HUGE improvement in terms of cpu and battery utilization. Obviously not optimal, but hey... it is better.
Still microsoft related I also ran the latest version of Microsoft to do app which it’s now universal.
I found this:
OneDrive release notes - Microsoft Support
Learn about the latest feature updates and bug fixes for the OneDrive sync app across all devices.
Although OneDrive has been working quite well for me so far on my M1 MBP, so I’m just going to hold off until the official release and then just reinstall it.
So, the only apps I still waiting for to get Apple Silicon Native is:
- Microsoft Teams
- Microsoft OneDrive
- VMware Horizon Client
I’m right with you on 1 and 2. I’d also like ExpressVPN to go native, but their help chat people said essentially,"don’t hold your breath." I wonder just how much battery I would save and transfers would improve with M1 optimized client.
SurfShark is native and works well. I haven’t had any problems with it on my M1 MBA.
