Zoom on Firefox only has the speaker view, if you want to have the grid view to see everyone you'll have to use Chrome/Edge.

I also have to use Figma on a daily basis and the there are some odd things happening in Firefox that don't appear in Chrome/Edge.

Zooming in web browser is using the computer wrongly (TM). Just as using terminal or VDI client in web browser. It's wrong because security sucks, and bloat gets even bigger. These activities should be done through separate and well restricted dedicated applications.

Using the Zoom client is also using it wrongly, because you have to install some blob from an untrustworthy company that has historically been riddled with security bugs.
