As someone who's never used or seen Zoom in action, what's pulling people into Zoom that's not already available in other tools (Hangouts Meet, MS Teams) and even works without installing anything (such as Jitsi)?
Based on what I've seen, there's just so much hostile behaviour by the company (including lying about meeting HIPAA e2e requirements!) and the fact that their _official client_ had parts removed by the macOS malware removal tool that I just don't get why people still consider it as an option. If it were the only "just works" tool out there I'd understand, but there's plenty of competition in this space.
I've personally began using the Jitsi server the local student network association has set up and it's been working like a dream. You can even share a window to others (which I didn't even know browsers had support for) for presentations and such.
