Exit app when closing the app

Zoom won't close the app when clicking the 'X' in the upper right hand corner. This is by design, per Zoom - https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/Exit-app-when-I-close-the-window/m-p/28362#M14018

 

This is the kind of "value-add" that Zoom loves to force on its costumers, and explains why Zoom was embarrassingly unable to capitalize on market share during the pandemic. Microsoft Teams and Google Meet are so much better in every way, and I hate having to admit that.

 

I'm uninstalling Zoom from my workstation and will be using Google Meet moving forward.

When is Zoom going to fix this? Oh, wait, they are doing it on purpose.
