I downloaded the mobile app but it’s asking me for E-Mail straight away and there’s no way to select my own server… What gives?

Oh no, it absolutely isn’t. It’s actually a feature apple implemented to stop apps from scanning and interfacing with the devices on your local network without your approval and Teams has zero explanation on why it needs that permission nor why the calls can’t be made without it while every single other app is able to do so without that permission.
The only other apps that require it are device specific apps (printer, local smart home stuff, FTP, DLNA, etc) and network scanners.
Is it possible that Android doesn’t have that permission and therefore Teams is able to scan the network regardless? You could test it out with an SSH or network scanner app for example

iOS, it’s been that way for a long time…

Wow, thanks for this one. Now I gotta listen to all of his music. Any recommendations?

Correct, using the guest network is better but I think turning off WiFi and just using mobile data is sufficient. I wonder if the permission applies to cellular connectivity as well.

Teams is the worst, you can’t join any call if you don’t allow it to scan your local network. I wish the executives a very nice and agonizing death.

I really love some good old OG festival Trap music and a recent album published by EDM artist ISOxo has this demo version of his previously released (and popular) track that scratches all the right itches for me at 1:30

Sorry I can’t help but I wanted to thank you for your contributions and posts and ask why you’re leaving lemmy?
Edit: If a few posts per week (probably more when there’s a lot of music coming out) is okay, I could do it.
