Interesting thing, lately I keep powertop up on my laptop to see what is
using what power, and oddly Zoom is always one of the worst. It has
multiple processes that become top-talkers each for power consumption,
hence what will drain your battery quickest. Wonder if others have
noticed this
How's the video sharing and remote control capabilities? That is always
the issue with linux involved.
Teams, UberConf both don't allow remote control, so they're only
half-functional imho. Even sharing alone, both were also bad about letting
me share one of my 3 displays at a time, only
We have been using the crap out of it at work, and it does a good job,
simple with minimal extras, but sometimes that's what you need.

Google has been making news again yesterday/today with Google Meet, giving
free 60min conference calls to folks. Not used it yet, but probably should

Right, not in my 20-some years around Cisco. Why I don't do much Cisco
anymore.
Webex finally pulled its head from it's bung a few years back to figure out
how to do screen sharing AND remote control even on linux, and so far for
me, is the only

That's not entirely true, I use Webex on Linux, including sharing my

webex says my system isn't supported and points me to the page on system
requirements. I now see the issue, I'm running plain Ubuntu rather than
'Ubutuntu' so I guess I'll have to find an install iso for that :).

Webex still does not have a Linux client (not even via web), so it is a no
