How do you do that?

The easiest way is by using an add-on. Alternatively, you can change it manually under general.useragent.override in your about:config

Also I swear I'm not trying to be an ass, but entering "how to change user agent string firefox" in your preferred search engine would have gotten you an answer much quicker.

No idea how MS Teams go these days, but at some point they did do something silly that would break in Firefox, no free pass. Knowing that it doesn't do anything fancy and that it worked before, it made us very suspicious that this was a targeted move.
