Google Meets is not as good as Zoom for our major use case: multiple couples of family or friends, each with a laptop.
If you try this with Google, at least when we used it, it didn't have multi-display: You could only see the "main group" talking, which might be someone laughing or ruffling a bag of crisps. Furthermore, the sound quality was straight up worse than Zoom, borderline inaudible with the same equipment Zoom gets.

It got drastically better at everything you mentioned throughout 2020 (when I assume people at Google had to actually start using it regularly).
