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.

    Also another clarification of the issue. This happens when it's 5 or less participants BUT one of those participants can be a single conference room filled with people. I had it happen this morning.

    I just started a new job and Teams is the standard for video conferencing. I'm shocked it doesn't have this basic features that Google / Zoom both have.

    I have always used mute by default, especially when Working from Home, to avoid accidentally interrupting meetings. Since using teams I've accidentally exposed my teammates to various amounts of home chaos. This is an essential feature that should be prioritized for implementation.

    I just dropped an F bomb in a meeting I had just joined with a conference room of Healthcare Professionals because of this. Fix your product.

    Three years of people begging for this feature and still nothing!

    This is what happens when your customers and users are two separate groups. User feedback is completely ignored as that's not where the money is coming from.
