Videoconference community servers

The open Jitsi Meet instances I was using for community videocalls all require a login, now.

Are there any videoconferencing community servers that are still open, or where I could ask to have an account?

The last thing I want to do is self-host a video conferencing software, unless it’s something simple and light.

Also: has anyone been trying other software solutions beyond BigBlueButton and Jitsi Meet? Happy to test reliable alternatives you recommend.

Der Mensch neben mir im #Zug versucht in einer #Videocall was zu erklären und muss es 5x machen, weil die Verbindung so schlecht ist. Und schimpft permanent auf die Verbindung und Deutschland.

Warum tun Menschen Dinge, von denen sie vorher wissen, dass sie frustrierend schlechte Erfahrungen sind? Ich würde mich da ja anders organisieren...

WhatsApp Clone, but Decentralized with P2P Messaging

"Secure and private" is the general goal.

This is a technical/concept demo of a fairly unique approach using a browser-based, local-first and webrtc.

This is intended to introduce a new paradigm in client-side managed secure cryptography. We can avoid registration of any sort.

Features:

* P2P
* End to end encryption
* Signal protocol
* Post-Quantum cryptography
* File transfer
* Local-first
* No registration
* No installation
* No database
* TURN server

Feel free to reach out for clarity instead of diving into the docs/code.

IMPORTANT: While this is aiming to provide a secure experience, it isnt audited or reviewed. **Shared for testing, feedback and demo purposes only.** Please use responsibly.

#Apple setzt mit iOS#27 auf Innovation und bringt eine der spannendsten Neuerungen direkt in die #FaceTime-App: die „#DualCapture“-Funktion. Diese #Technologie, die bereits im Herbst 2025 mit der #iPhone17-Familie in der #Kamera-App debütierte, ermöglicht es Nutzern und Nutzerinnen, gleichzeitig die Front- und Rückkamera zu nutzen. Nun hält sie Einzug in FaceTime und verspricht, #Videoanrufe revolutionärer zu gestalten.

Continuing to look for an alternative to "attachment" (for properly supporting an Actor specifying a list of CALL Service actors associated with it) —

Maybe a call specific custom top-level attribute would be useful.

Maybe something like:

"call": [
{
"rel":"callpub",
"href":"https://videocalls.example/users/joeblow"
}
]

Or even:

"call": [
"href":"https://videocalls.example/users/joeblow"
]

I think "endpoints" would also be a poor choice, too. Again, the semantics are wrong, or at least lacking.

Looking for an alternative to "attachment" (for properly supporting an Actor specifying a list of Service actors associated with it) —

I think using "alsoKnownAs" or "sameAs" would be a poor choice. The semantics are wrong.

For example: a Service actor might represent my mobile phone (or software on it). My phone is not me. It is something I have.

But, what about the non- fall-back situation where software could properly support this (when an Actor specifies a list of Service actors associated with it)‽

I think some might say, put the associated Service actors in "attachment". And, semantically I think that would work with ActivityPub, but — I have a very strong dislike with putting everything in "attachment" (and "tag"). It makes parsing difficult.

Because most people wouldn't be able to add custom attributes or custom values to most Fediverse software (including Mastodon) —

Most supporting software would probably want to support a "PropertyValue" link in "attachment" field as a fall-back

For example:

"attachment": [
{
"type": "PropertyValue",
"name": "Video Calls (callpub)",
"value": "https://videocalls.example/users/joeblow"
}

AFAIK, there isn't a way for an ActivityPub Actor (such as a Person actor) to specify a list of Service actors associated with it.

...

For example, imagine that there is a Service actor that represents a way to make a video call to me.

And, for example, I have my Mastodon Person actor.

And, I want to let people know about it (and other Service actors associated with me).

How do I do that using AP, etc‽

I have never done a video chat before on any device.

This mastodon thing is as public as I've ever been online... but I have to do a zoom call tomorrow and I'm not excited about it.

Now I have to learn zoom and figure out which device I want to compromise... then wipe and reconfigure.

Not excited at all about putting my face on an AI powered server.

I got a face for radio and a voice for silent movies... but maybe this will be the catalyst to me going public.

Secure decentralized P2P messaging PWA

Progress update:

- UI improvements throughout
- Passkey-based encrypted data at rest.
- Introducing giphy integration
- Bug fixes throughout

NOTE: This is still a work-in-progress and a close-source project. Its far from finished and doesnt have the user-experience needed to promote the project to a wider audience. The implementation is based on the open source MVP seen here: https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat. It has NOT been audited or reviewed. For testing purposes only, not a replacement for your current messaging app.

This prototype uses webRTC to establish a secure browser-to-browser connection. Everything is ephemeral and cleared when you refresh the page—true zerodata privacy!

(For those who have seen it before, i've added fixes and improvements throughout, so it might still be worth checking out)
