Ok, but this doesn't answer the question. If this is the same behavior since Mojave, why aren't those users complaining about this outage on their Mojave and Catalina based system?

Presumably something changed, but so far I haven't heard an explanation that makes sense of it.

According to statcounter.com [1] there are over 4x as many Catalina users as there are Mojave users (62% vs 14% of MacOS users), so I think it's just that the people complaining about Catalina are louder.

Anecdotally, I'm using Mojave and experienced this issue, a person I was trying to have a Zoom call with was experiencing the same issue on their Mojave.

I think there are enough comments scattered across Hacker News to safely conclude that it affected Mojave too - although it's possible the timeout behaviour / error handling is different to Catalina.
