Meet does not require a desktop client to work reliably (it does, however, require a Chromium browser). Zoom really tries to bury the browser link. First it says the meeting has launched, which it won't have if you don't have the client installed, then it tries to prompt you to download the desktop client, and only then does it reveal the web join link. Our security team has banned the installation of Zoom after some of their issues in 2020.
