"We're still developing Teams for Linux"

I have a new Ubuntu 20.04 installation and Teams isn't happy with it. After authenticating with my company's servers, Teams tells me "We're still developing Teams for Linux" and sends me to this page to request access to a testing group. Unfortunately it appears that testing group no longer exists. Any suggestions on how I can get Teams working?

If it matters, I have to use Teams with a proxy server, so I'm starting it like this:
teams --proxy-server=socks://localhost:8080

starting today, the latest deb package download is falling to 404 error, and apt-get update && apt-get upgrade is getting stuck for other updates as well, on Ubuntu (20.04) :

https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams/pool/main/t/teams/teams_1.4.00.13653_amd64.deb


Seems like the MS-Teams team need some coffee :)

Thank you for your response. I removed teams (apt remove teams) and executed your commands to reinstall it. I'm still having the same problem. Any other ideas?

I'm having the same message on both teams and teams-insider. This has happened every few months. Recently had my password changed and now I authenticate but get this same message. Browser version works fine. I've held off making a forum profile just for this but being a reoccurring issue obviously need more people to complain to get this resolved.

Yeah, I'm getting "We're still developing Teams for Linux" on both teams and teams-insider as well

Hi RyanWright-2040!

We recommend you try to install Teams for Linux manually by running the following command to see if it can be fixed:

  curl https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc | sudo apt-key add -
     sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/teams.list'
     sudo apt update
     sudo apt install teams
