Both "Zoom" and "MS Teams" are working fine in my Win10 machine. I have
never tried to get them to work on FreeBSD, and I have no idea why I
would want to. I don't have a linux machine handy, although that is on
my "to-do" list. Perhaps by the end of this summer.

You have not defined what "well" is? Is that with MS Teams or
'zoom' working on a Microsoft or supported Linux OS, or on something
else?

Both "Zoom" and "MS Teams" have been undergoing changes lately. I know
because I got updates for both applications.

You claim you want better support, yet you obviously have little or no
desire to pay for it. Screaming at a vendor, "We want more free stuff."
is probably not going to endear you to anyone. Someone has to pay the
bills.
