Every second time I’m using it, I either don’t hear the other people, or people do not hear me. YMMV.
- tazjin 7y agoIf you have these issues, especially so frequently, I'd wager it's a problem on your end.
- rad_gruchalski 7y agoYeah, probably. But what should I do about it. It’s unusable for me. Doesn’t work with Chrome, doesn’t work with Firefox. Zoom works for me every single time. Edit: Maybe if I could receive some support from Google to find out what my problem is, I’d be able to fix it. But that ain’t going to happen.
- bvandewalle 7y agoAlmost all problems on video conferences are on the user's end. What Zoom excel at is to mitigate most of those user issues by trying to figure out all the corner cases that the user might be in.
- StudentStuff 7y agoI couldn't get it to work in Firefox ESR on Debian 10, and audio was consistently choppy for me in Chromium 80 after I went through their forced account creation process. Zoom wouldn't use my camera either in Chromium :c Jitsi and Google Meet worked by following a link and clicking one popup. Much easier UX
- pinewurst 7y agoSame here - often it'll tell me I'm waiting for other people to show up but the other people will never see I'm there. It works somewhat better with Chrome but I loathe having that installed on my Mac. Rarely I do have to do so, but am forced to spend time removing its tendrils afterward (it's not just deleting the app!).
- abhiyerra 7y agoI just had a Google Meet call. They couldn't hear me. Zoom has its issues but it is definitely reliable for its purpose.
- contravariant 7y agoIn my case this is usually caused by a conflict with firefox's anti-fingerprinting. Which I think is fair enough.
