Most of the meetings that I attend as a full-time remote employee are ones where someone is sharing a screen anyways. There's little screen real estate for anyone's webcam and I wouldn't really be interested in staring at them since I'm primarily looking at the shared screen.


That’s where voice comes in handy. I’d hate to have to type while demonstrating the issue or solutions in the screenshare.

Then the difficulty on the other side of having to read since the host’s typing shows up in a side box instead of like a TV subtitle.

Sometimes we’ll have stakeholders call in on their iPad or whatever, but they’re passive so it’s best to avoid text if they do need to jump in.
