RIP Around 🪦 – any similar alternatives emerging out there?

Don't make us go back to Zoom or Gmeet...

Review Around.co?

Reviewers describe Around.co as a thoughtful video-calling tool for remote and hybrid teams, with an elegant floating layout, unusual camera options, breakout rooms with timers, transcripts, and strong support for mixed in-room and at-home meetings. Users often say it feels more polished or enjoyable than mainstream alternatives for group collaboration. The main criticism is reliability: one user says recorded meetings can be corrupted, wiping out important content. A maker review also praises its lightweight design and Slack integration, reinforcing the sense that its interface is a standout.

Around has many unique features and has come a long way from an indie app to a now-recently acquired competitor to many household names such as Zoom and Google Meets. The wacky camera options, optional breakout rooms with timers to increase productivity and of course the automated transcripts during recorded calls makes this one of the most well rounded team apps available; when your recordings don't get corrupted and you lose everything from a meeting.

I use it daily, fun and effective way to communicate, but it uses way too much resources for my liking. Collaborating with screensharing with live coding and trying to build and run with Xcode while in a call makes the build process extremely slow which wastes everyone's time.
