    Because zoom in your browser sucks.

    So you should download their thick client. Which also sucks because it seems to have memory leaks on Linux. And they are always adding new bullshit features no one wants. And then force you to update their software, when you are already running late for your morning meeting calls.

    Edit: it’s better than the alternatives though…

      If zoom sucks in browser mode, it’s because someone higher up decided it should, just like the “continue via browser” link should be hidden until you click to “open zoom app” once

      It works just fine unless you have to share screen. I personally hate zoom app because it gets horrible on multiple screen.
