FWIW, it works fine for a team in our company who regularly posts audio content for review. Many of us use macOS.

Yes. We use both Teams and Webex (I haven't used Slack for videoconferencing so I can't compare), and they seem comparable.

There's a 49 on-screen participant limit, with a 250 participant limit overall.
