How can 2 people use one computer display together, at the same time?

Here are some examples: 1) Each user has a joypad. Both users share the screen but are pretty much limited to playing games and stuff designed specifically for this scenario. 2) Each user uses a section of the keyboard. The device sits between them. What else is possible?

Here's what DOESN'T seem to be possible

A) Each user has their own mouse and can interact with things on the screen at the same time

B) Apps are designed with multi-touch in mind. A tablet is shared between users. Users can interact with the same screen together

The reason I ask this is because I meet with people online and I want to work together with them but the technology just seems to get in the way.

For example, I give a presentation over Zoom. I need that person to interact so I give them remote control of my mouse. But then I don't have any control. I can't even point to anything.
