Currently you can only see 4 different videos/people when using Teams on Linux. This forces me to use Zoom for any group call. Are there any plans for Teams to support more than 4 videos at once?

I find a similar feature request here. You could vote for it and add your comments.
Microsoft will always focus on customer’s feedback and experience. Some new features would be added to the services based on customers' feedback in the future, and your good ideas will be very helpful for them to improve the service.
Your time, understanding and cooperation will be highly appreciated.

Anonymous2021-09-30T08:28:56.11+00:00 We had more than 4 people for a few days back in May 2020 but Microsoft disabled it and never enabled it again. Seems like there is no further development on the Linux client as you can see in my post

More than 1.5 year you understand our feelings, but that doesn't seem to solve the issue. YOU need to do somthing about it!!!
@Sharon Zhao-MSFT you've promissed to escalate it 241 days ago, but still nothing has changed. The roadmap is empty, status haven't been changed on the votes.- https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103/suggestions/41553154
