Teams is KILLING my Mac Every Day
I have a hard time believing I'm the first person to post this after not finding anything in the forum. I wouldn't doubt if Microsoft is deleting them because they can't figure out how to fix this i...
Hi everyone, we're pleased to announce Microsoft Teams for Apple Silicon, which on the M1/M2 ARM builds, will have significantly faster performance than what's seen during the Rosetta emulation today! Here's our official roadmap ID for this release; Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365. More on this can be found here; Announcing Microsoft Teams optimized for Apple silicon - Microsoft Tech Community.
Users should see a significant performance boost with this release. And for the Intel Macs out there, we're still thinking about you! We have some large performance fixes coming that will help improve overall performance for the Intel version as well.
Thanks,
Sam Cosby, Teams Engineering PM
Unsurprised to find this post. I've been paying for Office365 for two years and have avoided teams like the plague becuase it hammers my 2015 Macbook Pro (16GB RAM). Any TEAMS meeting stalls every other app, the UI has 30 second response times for things like unmute, the fan sounds like it's taking off, and the system regularly just freezes, restarting with the "your system restarted because of a problem message".
I wouldn't even be here if my client hadn't just begun insisting on Teams for project calls. I can't continue to work with this product unless microsoft seriously overhauls it. Am I going to have to but a Windows PC just to talk to my client? Is that why these issues have been left unfixed for two years now?
