Drew’s Video Conferencing Server #
Now hosted locally as a service. I created an instance of Jitsi and wrote about it here as part of the archive’s record.
What is Jitsi? #
Jitsi is a set of open-source projects that allows you to easily build and deploy secure video conferencing solutions. It is a good private, federated, and libre alternative to Zoom or any other centralized video conferencing software. There is no complicated login process and you do not need to hand over your personal identifiable information with usernames and passwords. You can create calls just by typing the URL.
