What I needed most back then was to remote control my peer's computer (as in, providing Tech Support) and that's where the UI/UX is not as polished as the Windows version.

I didn't use the web version, because it's not possible to control the remote host that way.

It was very quirky (taking control and giving up control + the keystrokes needed to be used in the remote host) and getting in the way of providing effective Tech Support (the meeting bar flickered several times). Anything else worked fine, like holding the audio meeting itself.

So, I had to return to Windows, just because of Zoom.

EDIT: Typo.

it’s dependent in your window system. with wayland zoom is using screen shots to create a video feed in lieu of using the actual api because it would mean zoom has to respect privacy so no go

I don't think Zoom's here choice has anything to do with privacy but rather incompetence. They didn't even bother trying to solve it until users intentionally flooded them with tickets.
