Yes, Zoom has recently been adopted by local non-business groups across the world. Anecdotally, my wife's momgroups have Zoom now, and she's also using it with her own family. None of the alternatives are even close to good comparatively in ease-of-use and stability.
- macspoofing 6y agoAh. Makes sense. I deal mostly with businesses, and Zoom, from my anecdotal experience, is a minor player there.
- shadowtree 6y agoIn mid-2019 Zoom was only behind Cisco WebEx: https://www.ciodive.com/news/zooms-rise-carving-market-share-from-microsoft-cisco/560526/ https://www.ciodive.com/news/zooms-rise-carving-market-share... Now it is the market leader. Hence all the bad P.R. Zoom's CEO was the head engineer for WebEx. Also public, profitable.

- jcelerier 6y agoyou know what is more important than platform rules ? satisfying consumers. Remember that tech is made for humans before everything else ! e.g., if a majority (or even strong minority) of people in a country bends a rule, you change the rule to accommodate people, you don't put 30% of your population in jail. If zoom was a country, it would be the ~10th european country by population, you can't just ignore that.
