Linux isn't this way. I can understand Windows and perhaps Mac users have this predicament.

May I introduce you to a long list of Linux breakout and privilege escalation CVEs.

> Old people get very confused even when the interface changes.

That's a very ageist and ignorant comment. There are plenty of Tik Tok videos of young people getting confused over very simple things as well.

Sometimes age can be related but being "old" isn't a sentence to being confused by UI/UX changes.

I like Zoom's easy to use UX. I can't stand the complex UI of Teams and it sucks I have to use it every day.

On Ubuntu Linux (for years) I've used the following without issue, ranging from multiple times to every day, video and audio:

Hangouts Google Meet Skype Zoom Teams

Also, Wayland had issues years ago, that may have been related to the issue you experienced.

I am on arch for over 10 years and I had issues with audio. They could hear me, but I couldn't here them. Not on speakers, not on headphones.

We even tried X11, just to make sure... No idea why I mentioned wayland, I blame it on the temperature, sorry!
