Really? Haven't had the chance to check it yet because IT doesn't let our machines do the switch to the new one, but I don't know how to feel about apps/programs doing that more and more...

I think the old one was only a "website". The new one does feel better and faster (except, it sometimes crashes while in a meeting (lol)) But don’t know if it is "real" app or just JavaScript

Edit: if you go to Task-Manager, you see, that it is like one app and multiple „MS edge WebView2“

Yeah it’s a web app with some native tweaks for performance and local APIs

Mine has crashed every day during meetings now and 3 times it took the audio driver with it so I had to do a full restart before being able to re join

😄my coworker had this as well just yesterday, I believe, he had to react using chat in the meeting, lol, such great software.

The old one and the new one are both available as a web site and a desktop app.

Yea, but the desktop app is mostly just a webApp. You can imagine it like that: teams is a themed edge browser, where you can only load specific websites (like the tabs in your teams, all the office apps within teams and all the chats are each website, so to say.

Yes, and that's true of both the old and new versions. There are a few differences, but for the most part they're the same, so you'll generally see changes roll out simultaneously in the desktop and web versions.
