I’ve made a list of online boardgame platforms:

Boardgamearena and yucata have the largest collection and the best user interface in 2D. Tabletopia and tabletopsimulator are 3D and (mostly) paid.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22967716 has some good resources.

I have played some Steam games which support Remote Play Together (sharing screen and inputs from one device), so only one player needs to buy the game.

My friends and I have been playing board games (Coup, 7 Wonders, Stone Age) on boardgamearena.com. It has a nice interface, and looks like there's a lot of other board games too. But to play these games, one person in the group needs to have a premium account.

Great! Thanks for sharing! I'll look into this

That took a surprising number of clicks to get to how much a premium account costs, which usually indicates a very high price. I was surprised at the end to find it's just €24/year, that's extremely reasonable.
