I've wanted to like Jitsi, but the quality difference with Zoom is noticeable. Same with Google Meet and anything I've seen that uses WebRTC. They remind me of RealPlayer back in the early 2000s in terms of blockyness.
I would love to know about any Zoom competitors, free or paid, with comparable quality.
- j45 6y agoWire.com may be of interest to you. I have been checking out a few as well.
- frabbit 6y agoJitsi Meet works fine as long as you do not use Firefox. W.r.t. the general meme about WebRTC, this is old (2018) and explicitly does not claim to be anything other than suggestive: https://jitsi.org/blog/a-simple-congestion-test-for-zoom/ https://jitsi.org/blog/a-simple-congestion-test-for-zoom/

- paulgb 6y ago> Jitsi Meet works fine as long as you do not use Firefox. That's the fix I needed, cheers! For some reason it doesn't impact the Google Meet quality for me but now Jitsi looks great.

- nix23 6y agoSorry, works on my Firefox quite ~well BUT uses 3 time's more CPU...so there's that ;)
- nix23 6y agoIf you have your own jitsy server, you can define the max quality up to 1080p i think, the free jitsy service/server has probably really low 'max' video quality. BigBlueButton is also interesting, but it's more like a Schooling-tool...but also without a client (aka just need a browser)
