I'm not in startup world or in San Francisco so I gotta ask: is Google Meet popular with y'all? I'm on video calls pretty much all day every day and I'm mostly on Zoom or Teams, and I attend more WebEx meetings than Google Meet.

Yes we exclusively use google meet. It's very nice. I feel pain every time I have to use anything else.

That is not how the law works. It is illegal to record them period.
See reply to comment abovr. Juridictions varies depending on location, I don't think a software developer has to make sure its usage complies with every juridictions, it is up to the users to do that.
Yes, it is up to the user but I was replying to someone that said they record them still and just don't share them. I was stating that is still illegal under the law.

I'm not in SF either, and on Linux with Firefox on Wayland Meet just works with my camera through a capture card, external audio interface, screen sharing, etc. Every single time. I cringe when somebody mentions other tools, especially Teams. The only other tool that just works is whatever the calling software AWS uses and Jitsi.

Yes, because it’s free and easy to manage as part of Google Apps. It works well most of the time, although lacks a few of Zoom’s bells and whistles.

The point here is that laws vary by jurisdiction.

Well well well, Meet creeps many features if you don't use Chrome, Chime UI is so bad that a kitten dies each time someone uses it and finally Zoom works pretty nicely with the Linux client (they finally added almost all the features there lately), while Teams well, yes, it sucks.

Did Zoom fix window sharing with Wayland?

Can we solve this by putting a disclaimer in extension home page that it is upto the user to inform all parties and take their consent before recording ? Not really sure how to solve this, would love feedback.
Why would you need their consent? I record all my pro teams meeting with OBS in order to be able to watch a part of it in case my attention has been drifting away. It is perfectly legal. I would totally need their consent if I had any plan to make those videos available to anyone else but that is another subject (diffusion).
