Hi, I agree. I find it most distracting in the iPad app for Zoom. I haven’t found the option on the Mac version yet, but in the iPad version, you can mute the chat announcements. If you wish, and have time, we can set up a Zoom meeting and practice on some of the features so that we can pretend we’re smarter during the meetings we host or participate in.
Lots of this is pretty easy for the sighted user, but takes a bit more work for us.
