"Turn On Reactions" MacOS desktop notification

I abhor automatic gesture reactions in Zoom so I've disabled them. 

 

Recently, Zoom started popping up desktop notifications every time I start a new meeting - not traditional desktop notifications but one that hangs off the camera icon in the MacOS taskbar (Sequoia 15.2). 

 

This is horrible. How do I make it stop? 

 

Grr, I would upload an image but this forum isn't letting me.

 

The notification reads:

 

Turn On Reactions

"zoom.us" has turned off Reaction effects. Click <camera icon> and select Reactions to add more impact to your gestures.

Something doesn't add up and this confusing communication and buck passing is eroding trust.

 

`tl;dr` I am no longer experiencing the issue on macOS 15.3 with Zoom 6.2.11 🙌

 

I am unable to post images here so I've put them on imgur. In there you can see the following:

* I have all my FaceTime notifications on

* I do not experience this problem with Zoom

* I do experience the problem with Google Meet

 

My best summation of the issue is that Apple did do something dumb in macOS but Zoom has figured out how to address it and Google Chrome and/or Meet has not.

Started for me when I upgraded to Sequoia 15.3 and won't go away. Absolute madness! Just upgraded to zoom client 6.3.6 and it is still happening.

I also am having this issue with Version: 6.3.6 (47101) on Mac Sequoia 15.3 (24D60). Additionally, my video freezes or locks up (logitech HD 1080p) - which did not happen previously.

The solution is to turn off FaceTime notifications and restart the laptop.
