Honestly, if that’s the biggest issue you have, you’re living a very good life. Hope your week goes well!
Well, then I'm not taking your seriously then.
I just look at it like everyone doesn’t have a nice office to sit in for meetings so they use a background. I use my toddlers room because I have ppl milling about in my other room so I need a background 🤷🏽♀️
YUP! I've got an SEO specialist taking all his meetings from a bunk bed. People have enough crap going on, let them enjoy things.

You okay?

I ask because having been WFH for so long, all Zoom background complaints are very 2020. So I deduced that your annoyance with this subject was an underlying element to a bigger annoyance/anger in your life right now.
lmfaoo I personally hate that too! Why are we using ridiculous backgrounds? I think of it in the sense of ok if I was in a meeting would we be meeting at an island themed party.
yes that's what I'm saying lol
Honestly, I never gave it much thought. You do you, though.
Well, would you like your first date to come to your parents' house wearing flip flops? That's how I feel about a "fun" background.

The Zoom background discussion, if there is one, usually lasts a minute, and then we get on with the meeting. It is a little like talking about the weather while waiting for everyone to join.
Given this is a very tivial issue, I do have to say if we are having a discussion on production and you have a distraction background that tells me that you don't take the content of the conversation seriously. To be serious means that your actions reflect your intentions. And your intentions to be perceived as serious must be intuitive, focused, and willing to understand. You might think having a fun background is fine, but how you do one thing is how you do everything. Remember that.
Your actions can reflect your intentions without being overly serious. The way I approach meetings is with a lighthearted spirit intended to bring joy to those around me. That doesn't mean I can't think strategically. It just means that I don't assign my whole identity and self importance to how I present. So I choose to use snap filters to present myself in different ways according to my mood and the meeting topic. I don't use meeting backgrounds but I have been known to come as something funny for a virtual happy hour.
Mostly it just means I never have to wear makeup by using a "natural" filter. And I don't have to hear "you look tired" when I was born with eye bags.
i had a client meeting and they were using various animated backgrounds. just so distracting.
No. I couldn't do it.

Oops! This isn't reddit 😏
HAHAHAH this post is so great. Yes, It drives me nuts. I wish everyone just had a black or white background. I just need someting neutral to not be distracting for me.
Yes. It's just you.
Everyone has a different take. My office is boring to look at so I have a new background every couple of weeks. Folks enjoy seeing the latest one and often want to see if they know where it's from whether it be real life, TV, or a movie set.
