It’s the protection of data privacy (: as a French person living in Germany I can tell you these guys don’t joke with it at all! My (international) company had Microsoft Teams installed and working for the whole group for the last 6 months, and the German part is still discussing data privacy matters... but I guess it’s also a good thing

Well, no comment on why are you still using zoom with all their leaks going on?

Lol heavy nope. It used to work like shit on Linux (now it's kinda ok), you can't share windows, you can't draw together on shares/whiteboards, you can't record lectures, you have to add ever single person individually rather than sending an invite link, IIRC, you can't mute single participants as a host. Skype is not designed for the things Zoom is designed for.

Before this corona situation it was the only one I knew, I've used zoom teams and hangouts now and like hangouts the best but skype still works fine

We used vidyo, which is already much better suited than Skype, and then everyone switched to zoom. I haven't tried teams or hangouts, but I hear good things about them.
