From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been using the discontinued flatpak for the last month and it works fine.

Alongside it, I've also used the unofficial teams-for-linux flatpak which also works well.

I tried Chromium but couldn't get audio working and in Firefox, audio worked but screen sharing didn't as in, I couldn't see my lecturer's shared screen but I could see it in Chromium, so I had Firefox opened to hear the audio and was following along the shared screen on Chromium.
