Not sure why yours doesn’t let you see more than 4 people. I’m in a call with 12 and I see them all. That being said, Google docs, etc. beats Word and Excel hands down in the area of collaboration and a few other minor points. I hate being stuck in one ecosystem that way.
Wow, 12 - you're living the dream ;)
Could you share your setup? I'm on Linux, but I've tried both Edge and Brave. Both only show 4 people.
When a 5th person joins, I need to switch to the "group view" (?), which has a auditorium background and crude attempts by Teams to "crop" people from their background.
It's such a perfect summary of my Teams experience : you want something simple (ie: see 5+ people) and MS delivers the most useless feature... I cannot even call it half passed, cause I'm certain the "group view" took far more engineering effort than it would have taken to just show 5 or more people on the screen.
