why does teams now replace the normal close / min / max buttons on macos:
with:
when sharing your desktop (or window).
this is the same icon that is shown in the notification bar when screen sharing, but annoyingly replaces the window chrome... and teams is the only application to do this.
OBS studio (which records / captures the desktop) does not do this.
Zoom does not do this...
only microsoft.
why?
please remove this annoyance.

can you tell the version in which this issue has been resolved?
With every teams update I get, I'm in big hope that the issue is resolved, but no luck so far :(

Could you confirm which version you have downgraded to ? I am willing to go down to get rid of this.
Hi,
I am using the last version from July from last year, 2024 - so far it works great, just like before 👍🏼
