About Zoom and its shortcuts

Zoom's keyboard is almost entirely about the meeting: mute and unmute, start and stop video, share a screen, open the participants or chat panel, and raise a hand. Mute in particular is worth knowing as a hold-to-talk key rather than a toggle.

Zoom lets you make some shortcuts global so they work while another application is in front, and that is a setting rather than a default. Commands also differ between the desktop client, the web client and a Zoom Room.
