I think so, but the sandbox can easily be broken in theory from what I heard. It'll probably be fine as long as Zoom doesn't add malicious code that does such a thing.

    I wouldn’t say “easily” it’s just that LLM assisted code finding has revealed several exploits. Good news is that the flaws that have been found have been fixed.

    If you use flatseal and turn off clipboard access you will be fine.
