Hah now imagine using Teams through Citrix workspace.

One thing I've learned about Citrix is that its a startup company with limited resources to handle all the bugs and crusty corpocrapware layers. The client craps on my HDR setup. It install a ton of crap you don't need and it relies on crap like HDX software running on your machine that last time I've checked it didn't had ARM binaries but this tech is also unavailable for the iOS clients. Meanwhile RDP can do semi-decent multimedia stuff without any of this crap.

Amusingly Microsoft purchased RDP from Citrix (like 30 years ago). See version 4:
