I had no idea there was even a web version. Does it work in Linux? Zoom often leaves me with broken audio and I really dislike having to have more rarely used software trying to stick around in memory. I uninstall it after each use, purely out of spite. This is great.

On Ubuntu + Firefox I can see other people, but I can’t hear anything, nor can they hear me (I don’t know if they can see me)

I believe they recommend Chrome, so you might want to give that a try

It's like we're back in the 90s again.

The joke was (at least to the best of my knowledge) that nudging people to use chrome is further reinstating their monopoly, leading to a browser landscape comparable to IE days, which would not quite be the 90s, but close.
