I set up a Jitsi Meet server at home.
It's main resource use is bandwidth. CPU/RAM use for the server is minimal.
I used:
- VMWare Workstation:1CPU/2Core, 6GB RAM(I have RAM to burn)
- Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop default install (so I could use the base snapshot for other things)
- Hardware: i7 2600(yea it is old!), 32Gb RAM, generic gaming desktop with updated GPU.
- To Install Jitsi itself:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KR0AhDZF2A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KR0AhDZF2A
No end-to-end encryption? Don't care, it is coming to MY home and it DOES have SSL for client to server encryption.
I boot from known good snapshot when I want to use it. Turn it off otherwise. I guess I should figure out accounts etc but it hasn't been an issue to just let it run free for anyone to use while I am using it.
For those HN people who have all the tech-know, just build a Jitsi VPS somewhere with super decent bandwidth.
Hell, I would expect some HN people to be able to automate that shit and give me a website with a nominal price to have my own personal Jitsi Meet server, complete with Domain Name and Jitsi account management.
