What does this Zoom shortcuts page cover?

It lists 83 keyboard shortcuts across 4 categories: Meeting, Chat, Phone, and General. Both macOS and Windows bindings are included on the same page.

Which category has the shortcuts worth learning first?

Meeting shortcuts are the ones most people reach for every day, things like muting, turning video on or off, and managing participants. Once those feel natural, Chat shortcuts are the next useful set to pick up.

Are the Zoom shortcuts the same on macOS and Windows?

The functions are identical, but modifier keys differ. Cmd on macOS maps to Ctrl on Windows in most cases, and a handful of shortcuts use Alt or additional modifiers on one platform only.
