Private videoconferencing ?
(lemmy.ml)
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I personally haven't used it yet but I believe you can do all this with Matrix (choose your client - probably Element).
Matrix currently just uses jitsi for group video calls. Native functionality is in development.
It's in beta, but it's already quite usable. You can try it without account on a public instance e.g. at call.element.io
Why did I think that changed with 2.0? Another commenter identified this. Element has native call now.
The experimental Element X client implements it only for mobile, and on desktop you must use the separate Element-call client.
Everything else still uses jitsi.
Like I said, it's in development. Yes, you can jump some hoops to use it, but jitsi in element (and other matrix clients) is sticking around for a while yet.
I bet that's on some document buried somewhere. Thank you!
