Is Zoom the best though? Google Hangouts seems to be just as good.

I tried Google Hangouts on Firefox on Linux but couldn't get it to work at all. It just errored out before starting the call.

They just (like yesterday) fixed a bug that prevented Meet from working in Firefox in some cases, such as when privacy.resistFingerprinting was set to true. Give it another go.

I just tried and it does seem to be working now.
