graph posted:were ditching webex for zoom we used zoom with a vendor for the last major project. as someone who dialed into them all the time it was mostly ok. didn't care for the interface but it wasnt horrible or anything. only actual problem is that their setup called from some common number that had been marked as a telemarketer so one day i had to whitelist it or it'd get blocked when it would call my cell.

I last used zoom a year ago, it has a little window that must be on top of all others at all times, you can't share individual windows, scaling is bad and overall it's a bit wonky basically it's a pretty good video chat system with bad usability

this isn't about conference calls but at my last job we put an old system into "sunset" and people bitched up a storm about how dumb that term was and what does it even mean so the next round of emails about it stated that we were phasing it out

even internal, drat. all of our current internal problems using it are very clearly either user issues (my boss simply cannot adapt to this fancy new tech after so many years of webex and i earnestly look forward to his coming heart attack as a major career goal for me), or because the in-office wifi is frequently lovely. external users calling in often have issues, or did, they might have gotten that worked out finally.

we use it internally and it's a giant piece of poo poo, even outside of telephony. For instance, if I have a chat window open and a second person messages me, the entire application will freeze for up to 30 seconds while it attempts to catch up.

I like how windows high dpi makes things blurry but macOS scaling makes things sharper
