Zoom meeting

Remote video call

A Zoom meeting is a video conference conducted through Zoom, the video communications platform that became ubiquitous during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The term often applies loosely to any video call regardless of platform: I have three Zoom meetings today.

The format became associated with remote work, virtual happy hours, and the particular fatigue of staring at a grid of faces.
