    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).

        To share the bigger picture, I’m using this app 99% of my working hours. So it doesn’t make sense to do it this way.

        I’d be better off just working out of the vm but due to performance loss and dealing with passing through usb I just use windows.

        Although, outside of work I use Linux.
