At work I teleconference about 50% of my meetings, often with people in bandwidth constrained environments. There are only two truly reliable platforms in my experience. Zoom and Teams. Everything else seems to have connectivity issues for at least one participant. Hangouts is pretty good in a "broadcast" scenario, i.e. one person speaking at a time, but I don't find it reliable in a meeting scenario. If you really want to meet many people in a broadcast scenario I think people should be looking to Twitch, Mixer or YouTube Streaming. All three have been proven to work with large numbers of watchers - though I have no personal experience.
I'll not list the ones that don't work in my experience, but I've not seen them mentioned in this thread yet (I've not used OpenMeetings in anything other than a quick test).
