    I have several for work that will likely never work in Linux.

    So those have a nice little VM they sit on, which has been stripped bare of the nonsense. Remote desktop access enabled, and I can do what I need whenever.

      That’s pretty interesting, but it’s a meeting software. So I’m regularly sharing my screen and sharing files. So I need to be in the os. I’ll just key checking it every time a roster counts out for proton or the app I use.

        That’s crazy, most meeting software I’ve seen is cross platform and have web clients.

          I know, it’s exactly how I feel about the situation.

          They are going to release a new version with monetization soon. Maybe that will be a big .0 release and maybe there will be a Linux version.

        Ah, admittedly I avoid that problem entirely, I have an MTR, a ZR, etc running on devices here (hardware/software testing stuff), so I don’t need to run meetings on my desktop often.

        Edit: Just to note, I’ve done USB passthrough with VMs that were ZR builds and such, so that can be done. But I think if your sharing from there it can get messy (USB video capture and such as your sharing method, so on).
