Hi,
I’m looking for a E2EE and decentralized (or self hosted) videoconferencing that would have the following feature
- video or voice-only call
- share screen
- files transfer (optional)
- text chat
( all of it E2EE )
I’m considering Jitsi meet, that seem the meet those requirements
Do you know better alternatives or do you have remarks about Jitsi ?
Thanks.
We used Jitsi quite a bit during Covid, I was very happy with it, and I don’t remember any complaints from other people.
Maybe Signal since they have group call links now ?
Jami is also an option
I’ve never got Jami to actually work.
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
It’s already been mentioned, but I’ll throw in for Jitsi. I believe it can also be self-hosted.
never heard of jitsi, but looks pretty legit from what you shared!
Jitsi, Nextcloud Talk and Signal are all very good options (if you don’t need screenshare with desktop sound (e.g. a watching a tutorial video with sound), I haven’t found a FOSS solution that can do that - though tbh it’s been a while since I tried it with something other than Signal)
It’s tangential, but Mumble is still good for voice only chat. Rarely do we find video to be useful or necessary with a lot of collaborative tools showing multiple cursors per users & programs like Upterm that allow sharing a terminal session.
