Software\Policies\Zoom\Zoom Meetings\Meetings Description
Default setting is 0. If this policy is set to 0, the client will show self view in the gallery. If this policy is set to 1, the client will hide self view in the meeting. If this policy is set to 2, the client will float self view over the gallery. The value range is 0 to 2. If this policy is not set, client will use the default setting.

These exports write the registry — this is not a managed GPO. ⓘ
