I was shocked at how good the quality was in facetiming my in-laws on my wife's ipad. I've been using hangouts, signal, slack and duo for video calls and they were never nearly as crisp and nice as facetime was.

I think Discord was similarly good but... Discord just isn't what I'm going to voice call family on... realistically ever.

Apple has more control over its platform and can ensure video acceleration works for all participants.

Conference calls with a central server are particularly suspectible to "lowest common denominator" issues.

That makes a lot of sense. Vertical integration at its finest I guess.
