Zoom is OK because of extra functionality but I tend to avoid Electron apps which are just launchers for the webapp. At that point, you are just running a separate Chromium instance for every app. Just create a PWA or shortcut if you want an app window-like look.

Zoom is a Qt app, believe it or not. It's all QML and QtWebEngine (Blink).

This ought to be a significant improvement but their UX is such a mess it’s still awful.

Zoom is one app that gets significantly worse with each iteration. The last year has shuffled icons around in the mobile app and now introduced some horrible application launcher into the desktop app for meetings. I know they want to avoid being discarded as people emerge from Covid but this is not the way to do it...

The desktop app shuffles things around while you're using it. Move to full screen? Everything is now in a different place. Someone starts sharing their screen? Your carefully placed chat and participant windows are now everywhere but. Sharing your own screen? Nope, you can't see the other participants full size, even if you have two screens, you have to have the tiny icons. A disaster.
