Back when I had to use teams I would try going on a VC and if Slack was also open, my battery would drain in about 30-45 minutes (on a new-at-the-time MacBook Pro) and be super laggy the whole time.
Ever since then, as long as I’m not presenting, I’ll only call into video calls from an iOS device, regardless of whether we’re using Meet, Teams etc. It’s improved the situation a lot.
Also I always turn off my video feed while others are talking. I never understand why on a call with hundreds of people, they’ll all be constantly uploading their live video stream. Seems wasteful and inefficient, maybe somebody could comment on just how much or little it really is.
