bustrpoindextr,

Zoom is an absolute dumpster fire of an application, but that’s your solution. Don’t use zoom.

Seriously though, Google meet, Microsoft teams, discord, all work great. Zoom just barely functions and I don’t get why people want to use it.

Some of us have to accommodate clients and don’t get to decide.

bustrpoindextr,

Then you deal with the fact that zoom is a dumpster fire for those clients

    Interesting, the Flatpak is laggy for me.

    Potajito,

    Probably the web app works better than the native app. Also, try the flatpak if you still prefer native, it’s better than what’s on the repos imo.

    It does work better for me in general. The video is no longer slow… unless I start using a virtual background, then it gets really sluggish. (Firefox.)

    I also run Arch and have this same problem. I dug in for a bit, but found nothing. :( Webcam works perfectly well in all other circumstances except Zoom.

    governorkeagan,

    Have you tried the Zoom web app? They have a link on their site where you can join a meeting in your browser to test if your webcam/mic work correctly

    It works perfectly there! Thanks for this — it confirms the issue is with the standalone app (and Flatpak).
