I can't sign in with the zoom app it just redirects me to the browser to sign in which I do and the app still isn't signed in. I can't join zoom meetings either with error 5003. I have uninstalled and reinstalled zoom to no avail. My firewall is disabled and it still happens. I have to join from the browser which works but is a pain to use.

I managed to fix my issue, I used this solution: https://community.zoom.com/t5/Zoom-Meetings/Login-fails-with-Timeout-on-linux-works-fine-when-run-as-root/m-p/27987#M13758

Deleting a bunch of files, including a config file and then uninstalling and reinstalling fixed my issue. I hope this helps. Let me know.
