People here seem convinced this is negligence or malice on Zoom's part, but how do you propose they fix it? window.close() doesn't work in a tab. Launching the external app doesn't always succeed so if they did it all with redirects they couldn't tell you when it failed. And since Zoom links are usually opened from some other app that uses target=_blank there's going to be some tab open anyway, better the zoom tab than some confusing blank tab. I'm annoyed by then too, but it isn't Zoom's fault.
