If video conferencing wasn't complicated, there'd actually be a product everyone likes. So far, everyone seems to hate all of them.

  How much of this is related to the software though and how much is related to home internet speeds, camera quality, microphone quality, etc.? Most laptops ship with really low quality webcams and mics, and that’s predominantly what people are using.

    The difference between Zoom and Google Hangouts is staggering. Zoom works way better. I actually love it from a usability perspective, though it's frustrating because if Apple/Microsoft/Google could agree on an open standard with open-source clients/protocols Zoom wouldn't be necessary.

      I've just been using Slack video (for small groups or one-on-ones) and BlueJeans for larger meetings. I've tried Zoom and didn't see what it added on top of BlueJeans except for feeling like malware.
