Chunked video over Websockets (or chunked transfer) and scaled out WebRTC are just hacks. Browsers need to support proper low latency video streaming. There's a reason Skype and Zoom use desktop clients. If you are wondering, WSAM is not the answer, you need proper access to the hardware decoders, especially on mobile devices.
We had pretty good low latency video a decade ago with Flash but of course with HTML5 you don't need Flash </sarcasm>
