Need an easy voice calling solution
(self.selfhost)
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

I’d recommend setting up a Matrix server with Element
E2E encrypted text & voice calls (I believe unless they’re still doing the rewrite of e2e voice calls)
Matrix info: https://matrix.org Synapse server install: https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html Synapse TURN (voice) install: https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/latest/turn-howto.html
Edit: calls also work on mobile (hooks into native mobile calling apis to look very similar to a normal phone call)
https://github.com/spantaleev/matrix-docker-ansible-deploy makes it easy to deploy.
Not sure about the RAM limitation. If Synapse is too heavy, perhaps a different server (Dendrite?) will be light enough.
