Meh. With Jitsi I can self-host. In my view, that makes Jitsi better from a privacy perspective.

- RedShift1 7y agoI tried Jitsi and I love the UI but it uses so much CPU... Still looking for a self-hosted alternative.
- manishsharan 7y agoif I may ask, what did you not like about Jitsi? the backend server /videobridge is pretty cool. When you say ui cpu usaage, do you mean the browser /javascript UI ?
- RedShift1 7y agoYes, browser/javascript UI. I was testing it with a colleague and having 2 people in a meeting CPU usage already hit 50% and with 4 it was 100% all the time and the CPU was boosting to its maximum. Tests done on latest Chrome.
- terhechte 7y agoI've recently tried Jitsi but could not figure out how to do screen / desktop sharing. Is this possible at all, do you happen to know? (there were some sketchy-looking 3 star review plugins for Chrome, but they didn't really inspire confidence)
- turbinerneiter 7y agoThere is a button in the bottom left.
- manishsharan 7y agoThe problem with Jitsi is that the video streams have to pass through the videobridge. That means paying for ingress and egress network cost if you are on AWS .
- RedShift1 7y agoIt detects if two participants are in the same network and then uses p2p.
