    Exactly. The humble participant has no choice but to use the system
    chosen by the organizer.

    But the humble participant does not have to install Zoom to attend.

    It is well hidden on the invitation page, but you can join a Zoom metting
    with a web browser.
    (Done that several times myself. Works, although unfortunately without a "tiles" view.)

    It is not hidden at all.

    When I click an invite to Zoom (as I do at least once a month) it opens
    a webpage with two options. "Join meeting" and "open Zoom on this
    computer" (or words along those lines).

    Yes, but when I had my last meeting "Join meeting / Install Zoom" was a
    huuuge button and "open in browser" was a 7 pt text in grey on white (or something like that).

    That is not at all what it looks like on my machine.

    Not that I condone fascism, or any -ism for that matter. -Ism's in my
    opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an -ism, he
    should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe
    in The Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After
    all, he was The Walrus. I could be The Walrus and I'd still have
    to bum rides off of people.
