We did our daily standup call with it yesterday (mostly audio). 12 people, on a $3 Scaleway Debian instance (2GB RAM). Worked perfectly. Obviously as we stopped using Zoom we have to manually upload all our personal data to Facebook now.

> Obviously as we stopped using Zoom we have to manually upload all our personal data to Facebook now. I feel like there is a joke that's going over my head or I simply don't understand. Why you have to manually signup/login/auth/whatever with Facebook because you're using Jitsi now, especially on your own host?

  That is the joke. :)

  ... because Zoom isn't doing it automatically anymore?

  The joke is that zoom was found to be sending user info to Facebook apis.

    I missed that story so it went completely over my head. Now I could read about it, thanks!

Did you use cascading SFUs? What did you deploy? I'd like to set up my own turn server and use jitsi.

We tried to but with most of our team on Firefox it simply doesn't work unfortunately. Zoom has been the only thing reliable for us. It's a bit ironic that somewhere, someone is switching from Firefox to Chrome because of data concerns with Zoom.

  What does prevent your team from using "ungoogled chromium"?

  That's odd. My experience with Firefox on Windows is that I can't get audio to work with Zoom. Jitsi, on the other hand, works perfectly though there is a small yellow box that warns me that I should use a "fully supported browser"

    in Zooms webclient for audio to work with Firefox you'll need current Nightly, staged to be released as version 76 in May. Edit: another poster linked the bugzilla issue for AudioWorklets

    We use the Zoom standalone mostly. So Firefox isn't involved in the Zoom side. Jitsi works fine with small groups. But if we have >10 Firefox users in a room it doesn't for us. Maybe if you have much better internet than we have or otherwise better resources it works for you? We were using a WebRTC based tool before Corona (DFN), and had deprecated Zoom, unfortunately the people running that didn't manage to scale it up sufficiently in the crisis, hence we had to fallback to Zoom.

    Anyone know what the reason for the yellow box is?
