    Ahhh Google Meet. In the corporate world when we see a company using Google Meet we assume they are cheap and we will need to really talk discounts etc with them. It’s sadly normally true.

      Funny. In the tech world we see zoom vs google meet as zoom is for people who have exclusively soft skills I don’t want to talk to anyway. When I see a google meeting I know I’m going to be talking to someone useful.

      Depends on what part of the company you are dealing with - in engineering we’re usually a bit annoyed when anything other gets used simply because meeting software clients for Linux are either shitty or nonexistent.

          I tried to make Jitsi happen, but given that majority of out customers and vendors have google workspace there is little incentive to not use meet.

            You could always keep it open for internal usage, or offer it as a backup for when Cloudflare oopsies the internet or smth. It’s how we did the meeting that should have been an email at where I work, the day Clownstrike hit.
