Zoom Workspace

Has anyone noticed that with the upgrade to Zoom Workspace Zoom slows down and inhibits use of other programs at the same time? Personally, I love the video-conferencing features of Zoom. I have never needed nor do I want a scheduler, a calendar, interpretation, AI companion and all the rest. Please can we have a version that just provides video conferencing, sharing and the chatbox.  Thank you

I have, Andrew. And I'm furious about it. I have loved the video conferencing and recording quality, but I also do NOT want a scheduler, calendar, AI companion (!), and the rest of it. When I opened Zoom today and the pre-populated calendar showed up...without my explicit permission... the privacy invasion took my breath away. After being a Zoom-user since almost the beginning, I am on the hunt for a video conference only substitute. I do not need Zoom to be all things to all people. I DESPISE apps that are trying to secure a place as the platform that drives every aspect of my business and personal life (*cough* Google *cough*). And it's becoming harder and harder to avoid them. Thanks for the opportunity to vent. I'm so glad to see someone else is as p-o'd as I am.
