People hate zoom? Like "Teams is so much better" or "online meeting are bad"?
For me it one of the more enjoyable online meeting options and it leaves Teams, Skype, webex and what have you, far behind.
- Throwaway234285 5y agoLike "Zoom is an unethical company". See: Privacy concerns, lying about encryption, connections to china, bad security.
- cstejerean 5y agoThat might be “people on HN hate zoom”.
- Throwaway234285 5y agoFair point. Possibly "people on HN hate zoom, and then use it anyways because it's forced."
- rijoja 5y agoOr how about people on HN are educated about zoom and therefore hate it.
- dylan604 5y agoThat doesn't make them wrong though
- Throwaway234285 5y agoIt doesn't, but it's worth noting that the general populace doesn't feel that way.
- hashkb 5y agoBecause they don't realize how bad Zoom's bad acts could be for them. People didn't feel that cigarettes were bad for them. People don't feel like McDonald's is bad for them.
- vxNsr 5y agoI work for a large MSP, one of our partners announced recently that effective basically immediately they are no longer supporting any zoom integrations due to the China connection.
- kyawzazaw 5y agoa lot of college students do not worry about this
- Taylor_OD 5y agoIts possible to hate zoom without liking one of the alternatives. I know a lot of people hate zoom because they associate it without meeting burning due to this year and security issues.
- chociej 5y agoNever used Teams. Skype, which I last used years ago, was certainly better as far as downloadable chat clients go. Google Meet runs circles around Zoom, and I don't have to install anything.
