Ask HN: Is there a way to stop Zoom from stealing focus on macOS?
Just what the title says. I've poked around and haven't been able to find any solutions. I find this behavior annoying and sleazy and thought maybe someone here might have found a solution?

- Claudiusseibt 4y agoAgreed. This way you have tighter control over permissions, which means preserving your privacy. Also you would be some saving storage space.

- hnthrowaway0315 4y agoIf it's the fullscreen trick zoom pulls on when someone shares screen, you can turn it off in option.

- kehrin 4y agoSomewhat off-topic: Is there a way to stop any application from stealing focus? I hate it when the Terminal app grabs the focus while I'm typing something.
