Thanks, I think that's a fair assessment But now think for a bit: are video meetings the only way you can talk to your colleagues? Here are other ways you could talk or at least do some of the updating work: chat, email, shared doc, quick audio catch-ups (Slack amongst others). Not just to send what can only be sent by those, but why not explore different ways of doing this? Managers seem allergic to trying anything besides "doing a quick call" Why don't you put a headset and try walking around and having a walking meeting? "People have different quality headsets" Ok how much is one of those? I guess it fits the budget. Can't do much about the connection, sure, but maybe the company can think of supporting the employees? Do all meeting need to be 1h long? I call BS on that one. If the meeting is done it's done, but some people feel like dragging it over. Linux development has been, for the good part of 20 yrs, done without zoom, phone calls, 1:1 meetings. Mostly through chat (irc, not slack) and email. It's doable
