For 3, what it's taught me is that I have to load a video conference, go into the privacy settings, allow use of camera and microphone, then exit the video conference and load it again before anyone can see or hear me.
I'm a consultant and talk to multiple clients all with their own video conference solution and having to do this every time I join a call where a client is using a different video conference solution is very unprofessional. The worst was using Teams where I had to close my browser before I could join the conference, after I had already queued up everything I needed for the call. So now everyone is waiting on me to re-open everything and reset the state for the demo.
I never thought I'd miss Windows UAC.
- bobbylarrybobby 7y agoSurely this is the fault of the app and not macOS? I have plenty of apps that asked for those permissions once, got it, and never asked again.
- freehunter 7y agoThey’re not asking again but asking for the first time is what is disruptive because it forces you to close whatever application is requesting permissions. It’s sucks when WebEx does it but at least that only makes you close WebEx. Still a really poor design choice but not nearly as disruptive as browser-based tools that make you close your browser.
