One thing I really disliked when I was still in a job where I had lots of remote meetings was the awareness that a video stream of my face was constantly being broadcast to all participants, and I couldn’t say anything without it being full screen for everyone immediately. And it would stay full screen until someone else said something. This made any minor comment feel like something of top priority, and also a bit like a performance since it was video. Related, what I disliked the most, especially in meetings with many participants, was the speed of the transition from no one being especially aware of my own presence, to - within a fraction of a second - completely filling everyone’s awareness, when speaking in a meeting.
