What is the difference between teams and teams-insiders package in Linux? If I want to use the stable version, which one should I use?

    Hi!

    In my experience, teams-insider is a testing release and teams for Linux is the Official version.

    You can install both of them in your device.

    If there is a difference, I haven't seen it. The only download I have found is
    teams-insiders_1.3.00.16851_amd64.deb which I downloaded on August 12 when I tried uninstall/reinstall which failed to resolve my login issues.

    Insider used to be ahead of the regular teams release but they've been the same for a while as visible development seems to have come to a halt.

    @Menno , You are right ... Insiders is ahead of regular teams. Right now, I see that insider is at v 1.3.00.25560, whereas teams is still at 1.3.00.16851.
