Is Beamer a meme? I love latex, but feel that it would be extremely inconvenient to use it to format something so visual as presentations. Can anyone who has used beamer confirm/deny this?

No, if you want to be taken seriously doing presentations in mathematics/physics and to some extent computer science and chemistry you should use beamer

If you know what you're doing it isn't.

As a continuation on this,

Using beamer over something like canva or powerpoint adds a level of professionalism that you just can't get from the former two aforementioned technologies. It is tailor made to present mathematical text in ways that the other technologies are just obviously inferior in.

There is something to be said about the learning curve involved in beamer. You have to know latex, but it you already do, it's a trivial amount of work. If you don't, there is definitely a learning curve.

Don't use the default layouts, they are horrible.

Slides are mostly boxes with text inside, bullet points with text, formulas and images.
The only thing tricky are images. Tikz is often handy, but if your picture is static use inkscape and export into pdf.
