Twitter user Christopher Scott pointed out the change on the UserVoice page. Scott works for Microsoft and focusses on Office 365 and Microsoft Teams.
Microsoft Teams is clearly a focus of Microsoft's right now. It continues to expand in both feature set and availability and potentially passed Slack in terms of daily active users earlier this year. There is no timetable for Microsoft Teams to be released on Linux but the fact that a Microsoft employee who works on Microsoft Teams highlighted the UserVoice page is very promising.
