Also every Zoom/Google Meet call. WebRTC is on top of SCTP.

WebRTC uses SCTP in a weird way: on top of DTLS, which is itself on top of UDP. When most people talk about using SCTP, they mean using it instead of UDP.
Sort of. SCTP is used for data channels, the audio/video is RTP. Still an important piece though.
