Thank you! What I am missing is not a whiteboard. Whiteboard is just a solution that works in the office. The underlying requirement is: I want to be able to express myself in a visual way together with others. So a solution to the same requirement, that works remote, shouldn't have to mimick a whiteboard. Instead I would like the ability to : * Draw straight rectangles, lines and arrows

* Type text with my keyboard

* Move stuff afterwards

* Let participants point at different places simultaneously

I'm looking forward to trying out Escalidraw.

It seems to cover the first points, but not the last one.

So I find miro.com does exactly all of this very well. It just happens to try to do a whole bunch of other stuff alongside it, which makes the initial investment in moving your team to using it quite substantial.

Try out figma. It wasn't made for this purpose exactly but it supports everything you just listed.

The first points might also describe a diagram tool like draw.io
