Virtual backgrounds are popular in my workspace, and I think a more general solution to the issue. I'm not a huge fan of virtual backgrounds, they make things even more artificial, anyhow I would use them occasionally but for the fact that Google Meet does not support them in Firefox.
- nicoburns 4y agoA simple blur can be a good compromise if you want to hide your room. Although personally I just make sure it's tidy and allow people to see it.
- gkop 4y agoYep, simple blur seems most classy, thanks for mentioning that as it wasn't directly implied by "virtual background". To be clear, Google Meet does not support a simple blur on Firefox. (I could use a virtual camera, but as I mentioned in another comment.. I don't care enough)
- iso1631 4y agoIf you're concerned just get a roll up picture or greenscreen for your background
- ghaff 4y agoYeah, I have my office pretty well arranged as a "set" but I do have some very utilitarian metal file cabinets behind me. I was mulling making furniture changes but ended up just draping a fabric hanging over the cabinets from a curtain rod. Take about 30 seconds if I need to get into the cabinets for some reason. I care less about meetings but I also shoot some video so needed some sort of decent setting anyway.
