40 minute timer work7/21/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() There’s no limit on how many times you can do this, so in theory, you could spend many hours in one meeting, albeit with breaks every 40 minutes. Everyone can now join the new meeting and the 40-minute timer will restart Before everyone else has left the original meeting, start a new one using the same joining information.You’ll be prompted to choose a new host – anyone will be fine.At this point, the host should choose Leave Meeting (not End for All!) Once the call gets close the official 40-minute limit, a countdown clock will appear in the meeting window.Copy this and send it to all your potential participants.All the info about the meeting will appear, including the all-important ID and joining link.Scroll down to the Calendar heading and make sure Other Calendars is selected before clicking Save.Set the date and time for when you want the meeting to roughly start and end (to the nearest half hour).From the home screen, click the Schedule icon which looks like a calendar.Open Zoom and sign in if you haven’t already.Following the recent introduction of a two-participant time limits, this workaround applies to all calls made via the free tier: If you want your meetings to last longer, you don’t necessarily have to use another app. More expensive plans remove the limit altogether, and it’s worth noting that only the host needs to subscribe. They start at $14.99/£11.99 per month or $149.90/£119.99 per year, with the cheapest subscription extending the time limit to 30 hours for up to 100 people. This is probably the most frustrating thing about Zoom, but it acts as an incentive for people to pay for a subscription. That’s the same restriction that has always applied for anywhere between three and 100 participants. Once that mark has been reached, everyone will be kicked out of the call. But in May 2022, the company announced it would now be limited to 40 minutes. I think in general if N = 2 then N > 2, that is if I'm having this problem and one other person is having it then chances are there is a nontrivial number of people facing this problem.Zoom’s free tier used to allow two participants to stay in a meeting for up to 24 hours. Which is exactly the problem I'm also dealing with. If you explore their profile you will find they often engage with very many new sites. I propose: removing the timer entirely for users that have achieved > some threshold (maybe 1k maybe 5k) reputation, and instead of counting questions across the network, enforce a timer for low rep users only for back to back questions on the same site.Īt least one other person has ran into this problem see here: Why is the 1 question per 40 minutes limit enforced ACROSS different sites?īut the proposed solution doesn't help since if the user asks on a new site they have to deal with the timer again. It seems strange that the network assumes "it's not practical for you to have a sports question and a quantum computing question in under a 40 minute span". Now I understand that, we do want to prevent network overload, but it seems to me the timer should be constrained to a single site (i.e., don't post back to back on a single site with a 40 minute gap). I'm running into troubles with the 40 minute timer which is preventing me from carrying out this habit. Once I have digested these topics into good quality questions I would like to, in one burst, ask perhaps three different questions on three totally different sites of the Stack Exchange network. ![]() I often daydream and spend the bulk of my day thinking about up various topics. ![]()
