Cannot minimize the 'Please wait for the host to start this meeting window' in Ubuntu 20.04

I have tried a lot of ways to minimize the 'Please wait for the host to start this meeting' window. It is annoying and I cannot watch anything until the meeting starts because the popup blocks quarter of my screen. Please help!

      Happy Halloween! You can make your laptop into TASK VIEW, click (windows+tab) or (launchtab+tab) and make a new desktop (Desktop 2). You can do your work in desktop 2. When the meeting start, you will see the windows of zoom. Have a good day!

      Hi! You can click the " - " on the upper right corner of the zoom window.

      I don't seem to find it. Only the 'x' quit button is in the top right corner.

        This is an incredibly obnoxious "feature" of zoom.  It's nice to log in 5 or 10 minutes in advance but this makes it basically impossible to do that because it's so annoying.  No solution I see.  Nice.
