We were testing #galene as an alternative to #discord video/voice-chat in online #ttrpg sessions today. (In addition to #irc as a chat that is)
It worked fine. Galene has really low ressource demands and we had multiple people in the chat on two continents with good quality video and multiple simultaneous screenshare windows at the same time.
If discord enshittifies too much I think we at least have a way to play our games.
This month's solarpunk hangout will be happening on Thursday, March 13, at 7:15-8:15 Eastern Time on Jitsi!
Come hang out and build solidarity amongst other solarpunks, discuss solarpunk things, express your climate grief/frustration, swap hopeful narratives and tips for how to incorporate solarpunk into your everyday life, and more!
The link will be posted on Patreon, accessible to all paying members (reminder: our memberships start at $1USD). https://www.patreon.com/solarpunkpresents
@ForestOrca @arstechnica Seconded!
I've been using Jitsi for years. Overall it's a pretty great substitute for Skype/Zoom/Teams for my use cases (2-3 people video chat - occasional screen sharing).

Unsere kleine Fotorunde hat sich immer per Rooms bei Facebook getroffen. Die gibt es wohl nicht mehr.
Gibt es da eine offene Alternative außer Zoom oder Teams? Wir tauschen dann auch Dateien oder Bilder aus.
Anyone keen to tinker with the beta of @matrix video rooms?
Hit me up with your Matrix address for an invite, or join in here: #VIDEO:matrix.iridescent.nz
VIDEO (VIDEO Interaction Delivery Exploration and Observation) is a sister project to VOICE (VOICE Organised Investigation of Chat Engines)
#VOICE:matrix.iridescent.nz
@dashdsrdash also #Zulip has an actually working #Search and allows organizing stuff - unlike #Slack or #Discord.
It further integrates with #JitsiMeet (and even #BigBlueButton) so if one needs a #voicechat / #videochat or #presentation done, it just works.
We've tried encouraging our service users to join our online workshops via #JitsiMeet in the past and faced considerable backlash for using it from these less confident tech users whose introduction to video calls at the start of the pandemic was, sadly, via #Zoom. Hence, we've been using Zoom. Perhaps we can nurture a move towards something like #BigBlueButton for our participants? Would it be smoother? https://go.theregister.com/feed/www.theregister.com/2023/08/15/software_freedom_conservancy_zoom/ #videoConferencing #videoChat #videoMeetings #onlineLearning #BBB
Tiny Privacy Tip for VideoChats :
If privacy is important to you,
it would be a good idea to move your conversations away from platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet to use a more privacy-respectful alternative.
One platform that is more privacy-respectful for videoconference is
Jitsi Meet: https://meet.jit.si
EDIT: Sadly, Jitsi just removed its anonymous feature for creating rooms.
It is still better than Zoom or Google Meet, but if you cannot self-host your Jitsi Meet server, read this first: https://jitsi.org/blog/authentication-on-meet-jit-si/
Jitsi Meet (still) has many benefits:
Open and Free
Jitsi Meet is open source and completely free! Here’s the code: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet
End-to-End Encrypted for One-on-One
If you only chat with one person, chats are end-to-end encrypted. It is also fairly secure with more participants. More on Jitsi's security here: https://jitsi.org/security
Self-Host (if you want)
For additional privacy, you can setup your own Jitsi server, here’s how: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/
EDIT: With the recent changes to Jitsi Meet’s public server, I now recommend self-hosting to avoid having to use a third-party account in order to create a room.
Versatile and Simple
Nothing new to download, Jitsi Meet works with any browsers. You can also use Jitsi’s desktop or mobile app if you prefer!
Why use a platform that is
spying and tracking you and your interlocutors when you can use a free open-source more privacy-respecful alternative!
Wenn ich kein #Whatsapp, #Skype, #Signal, #FBMessenger, #Threema und #Telegram nutzen kann/will, was gibt es denn alternativ an empfehlenswerten Open Source Messengers mit #Videochat für #Android und #Windows und OHNE #Telefonnummer?
I have a minor gripe with modern video apps (#videoblogging, #videoconferencing, #videochat… basically every app where the user has a camera pointed at themselves, and the app renders a preview of the camera's perspective).
I've been using #webcams since the 640x480 days, and the early implementations were all set up very intuitively. The preview would always show a #MirrorImage of the camera's input, while the actual video, whether it was recorded, broadcast, or whatever, was left unmodified. This was great!
But sometime in the last decade or so, all the video apps started doing this annoying thing where they give the user an option to toggle the #mirroring effect, but that's exactly the problem – they treat it like any other effect! When you turn mirroring on, it's on for both your own preview AND for the actual video, and vice versa.
Why on earth did they do this? When I'm on a video call, I want my preview to be mirrored, but I want everyone else to see the unmodified video!
