    States are catching the Zoom wave during coronavirus 2020 and streaming public meetings. Question for @Jeff or @Moderator1 or any other mod, can we update the page here to allow Zoom embed codes ASAP?

    Are there any Zoom experts here who can answer technical questions?

    I do know that if you have 25 people in a meeting, nothing will really get accomplished.

    My wife is on the BOD at a local credit union. They just zoomed their monthly meeting, took about 20-25 minutes. But no beer or dinner afterward. :(

    I understand if people are required to use Zoom for work or school, but not sure I'd want to go anywhere near it for personal use.

    That story is about Sneek and doesn't mention Zoom.

    Stop using Zoom, mainly for its lack of respect for privacy. The company recently stopped collecting user data and sending it to Facebook after a story called them out. Now, the New York Attorney General's office is investigating them.

    If you need a free video conferencing tool, use Jitsi.
