I am using it in chromium on linux, and I can tell you it does not just work. The audio is really really shit (constant crackling). I'm basically unable to attend meetings on zoom. Luckily most of them are in google meet which works fine in a browser.

You could just install their native app which is available for Linux as well and just works. It's also a real native app and not the usual Electron-based crapware.
