Well, calling developers "moron" isn't something that is going to get you additional support. >> Few weeks ago I used Google Hangouts on Firefox on my FreeBSD desktop >> and everything worked out of the box, it's sad it's all moving towards >> one and only operating system.

But the solution is out there already created in > just two days :-) It looks like you are stuck in ~2005, with all the Microsoft bashing and Google appraising. Things have changed drastically over the years, Microsoft is much more friendlier to open source now (and if it gets them profit, all the better, I don't really care) and Google is just another lock-in vendor, I have stopped using their products completely except for web search, which I still find giving me the best results. > https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=246363 > > >> Going back to Temas, which I need to use at work as it's our official >> communication platform - I can make it up to choppy sound in some >> situations but not working microphone is no go, I wonder what's the >> problem and how to debug that. > > I noticed the same issues with Zoom, maybe the cause is similar.

FreeBSD doesn't seem to be the choice of those "purists", you'll have to go Debian for that, I think. >> Maybe we need to have some sort of developer toolkit for >> software providers, to make their life easier building stuff for FreeBSD. > > Yes its called POSIX, BSD, GNU, its already out there for tens of > years available for free :-) How are "BSD" and "GNU" related to any kind of "developer toolkit"? POSIX is important, yes, but there are a lot of things it doesn't cover, and it's not the base platform functions that are the problem for porting anything.
