TEAMS - mute by default when entering a meeting

Anonymous

Can you mute by default whenever you enter a TEAMS meeting? I know this option is available in WebEx, but can't seem to find it in the settings in TEAMS.

I couldn't agree more, it's 2023 there's no reason this feature is missing. Our company meetings have so much "noise" on them because as every single person joins Teams "unmutes" them making their mics live. If you don't have a device that shows you this, you don't realize it's a live mic and the meeting gets to hear everything going on in your home, every sound, every cough, etc.

Please add a setting for users to choose always join meetings with mute on and video off, brand it as a new feature, whatever MS's ego needs just please turn this annoying feature off.

The fact that this feature is not available after needing it for over three years is entirely ridiculous and stupid. This problem and others are why I use Webex except when absolutely forced to use MicroStupid Teams. Webex and other applications are not perfect, but Webex beats it.
