meet.jit.si has that feature. It seems really superior to Zoom (no account needed, links in natural language, great UI, good sound/video quality), I don't know why more people don't use it.

I have been using jitsi for the past year or so and the experience is pretty much what you describe.https://meet.jit.si

you should try zoom or bluejeans, it's been extremely stable and consistent for us, we do conference calls from behind china's great firewall to palo alto with little to no lag, even has HD video.

I use Jitsi Meet. It's easier to use, the audio is generally better (although my only evidence for this is anecdotal, I'm taking piano lessons over video chat right now and meet was the only one that provided consistently good audio for my teacher), and it's web interface "Just works" whereas Zooms hates to be launched and tries to make you install the app constantly (although their launcher is so weird it behaves differently for me depending on the day).

Why don't you try Jitsi? https://jitsi.org/

Have you considered using Jitsi for video?What went for/against?

I see you have not used Jitsi. It's not bad.
