The point of video meetings and "who goes next" is valid. Have actually had the exact issue. Simple fix could be to order the faces the same way on everybody's screen.

If I'm have one-to-one meeting, I prefer to site face-to-face with other person. Of course with multiple participants this is not possible. Wouldn't it be an example of "bad skeumorphism" if the video conferencing would take these real-life limitations to software? While the grid-of-faces is not natural, it allows you to see everybody at once.

Yes, you’re certainly right about that. I often find that the gallery view in Zoom is the best possible interface. And the limitations of real life might not be better on a screen. But I’m still left wondering...isn’t something more creative possible here?

specifically for standups: you can have a predefined list of people, displayed in fixed positions in the grids. guests can have another box displayed in the same order for everyone.
