In a Zoom meeting, are participants counted by the number of DEVICES signed in, or by the number of ACTUAL PEOPLE who are actually on camera, and listening, and watching through those devices?
We want to join two church congregations for a Zoom meeting, probably using only a handful of DEVICES ... but with over a hundred actual PEOPLE on camera, and listening, and viewing through those devices.
So does the 100 participant limit mean I am limited to 100 DEVICES, or that I'm limited to 100 actual PEOPLE who are participating through those devices?
Thanks!

Functionally (regardless of Terms of Service, which you can/should comb to be safe), this limit pertains to the number of participant connections, which [in the vast majority of cases, which would seem to include yours] corresponds to number of connected devices 1:1.

For instance, a camera pointed at 100 people, but running into a single computer connected to Zoom would be seen as a single participant on Zoom's back-end.
