Yeah, I forgot about teams! Never used it privately, but at work I am using it on a daily basis since about one year.
Does it have any limitations like Zoom cutting off at 45 minutes?

I have only used Teams on Windows computers so far. Since it has a web client it should work well on any platform … but you never know!
Tuomas, have you used the Teams web or desktop client on Linux and/or macOS before?

Having a web link would certainly lower the barriers. But Zoom is out … unless somebody has a paid account.

Has all the features tech meet needs, works on any platform (also with only browser, no app install needed) and meeting can be joined with a link (nothing else is required). I can set up a meeting if Tobias decides so.

Skype is free and available for Linux, Mac, Windows, iOS, iPadOS, and Android. Zoom has a free version that is good for meetings up to 40 minutes, or longer if one person has a paid account (US$149.90/year) and is also very cross-platform.
