I’m currently running Grapheme OS on a pixel. One thing that I’ve had trouble finding is a secure video chat option. I’m assuming that its because such a thing in a secure environment is hard to come by / impossible.
The only options I’ve found are things where you must self host like element etc. Is this the only way?
I realize there may be nuanced answers to this question that I may be overlooking as I’m still relatively new to online security/privacy so I apologize in advance if this is a moot question.
If you’re looking for something professional, Jitsi is open-source and only requires one person to have an account to use it… You might have a better experience if you self-host or find someone who does.
They posted a reason, but unfortunately the reason was it was getting abused.
But I did discover something: the list of alternative servers, which might not have been very up-to-date anyway, has vanished from their servers sometime after February.
