I failed after spending 35 minutes for that. I ended up
creating at least two accounts (even though I already had a
Skype account, which sounded to be sufficient). Many special
codes sent to my phone and email. The whole thing is badly
designed and felt buggy.
In the end, contrary to how the download started for "my
platform" (Linux Mint) it said at some point that MS Teams was
not available for my platform. (There is an MS Teams program on
my system which starts fine but thinks I am not signed in. (?))
So I decided to use it in the browser, which turned out not
working with Firefox. Luckily I had Chrome and it worked.

It requires one. I could not find a way through their flow to
use my existing Skype account.

Teams is indeed pretty bad. It should be an embarrassment for
Microsoft (they know this, see the recent M+A news) and similar
that discord - the app aimed really only at gamers - actually
works and their serious business tools don't.
