If you're running an Apple Silicon Mac you can get an early build of Teams osx-arm64 from the exploration build link listed here.[0]

I've been running a daily build for a few weeks and it's noticeably better than the Intel build on an M1 Pro. It launches in half the time and feels far more responsive (probably due to not needing to use the Rosetta JIT for Electron). That said it's still a daily "exploration" build so YMMV.

How do you prevent it from automatically updating to the Intel version? I keep downloading the preview builds and they keep getting updated.

Maybe try to delete the launch agent (`com.microsoft.update.agent.plist` in `/Library/LaunchAgents`)

and launch daemon (`com.microsoft.autoupdate.helper.plist` in `/Library/LaunchDaemons`)

Can confirm it is snappier on a M1 Macbook Pro and using *less* RAM, maybe about 10% less.
