Having used a range of video conferencing systems, your description of Meet lines up with pretty much every Meet session I've been involved with. I'll meet the same group of people on Zoom another time and it usually works much better on Zoom.
Meet = glitchy low-res videos, freezing screen sharing, etc even on high quality fibre connections
Zoom = smooth high-res video and generally usable screen sharing (with minor glitches that usually sorts itself out in seconds) even on low quality connections
The difference is like night and day, no joke...
- usr1106 5y agoOn 4G, which gives me 20 - 40 Mbit/sec uplink I have no major issues with Google Meet. Sharing terminals with red on black font does not work well. Whether Zoom works better I don't know from own experience. I hardly ever use it because my employer has a Google subscription. Well, sharing terminals over telcos is backwards anyway. We did that 20 years ago over 56 kbit/s modem lines using VNC. And the compression was lossless, the result pixel perfect.
