  1. Update on my attempts to make #captions work for #Jitsi:

    I've heard back from the following re: no plans to support Jitsi Meet: #OtterPilot, #MeetingBaas, #ReductVideo, Fireflies

    #Tactiq said it's planned, but no timeline.

    Tried reaching out to #8x8 for a quote, but they never followed up...

    So far, my options are to run #CaptionNinja alongside Jitsi (free), or to embed a Jitsi-as-a-Service meeting iframe on a web page and enable captions (premium).

  2. 2. Another option could be to use #CaptionNinja: caption.ninja. It's a #WebCaptioner replacement, and only works on Chrome (and co). Caption Ninja is cool, though, because:

    - it has a live feed that can be shared with others or added into #OBS as a browser source overlay thingie
    - it seems pretty customizable (github.com/steveseguin/caption),
    - it has a manual text entry mode (for stenographers?)
    - can add speaker labels
