Pion seems promising! Is there anything like Jitsi built on Pion? (I have been using Jitsi a lot lately. It is great software and a good example that free software can be just as featureful as the proprietary alternatives, but also a pretty complex software stack on it's own, there's a lot to learn just to extend it.)

Thank you :) Yes! There are three 'media servers' that I know of. You can also find more stuff in awesome-pion [2] * https://github.com/pion/ion https://github.com/pion/ion * https://github.com/peer-calls/peer-calls https://github.com/peer-calls/peer-calls * https://www.irif.fr/~jch/software/sfu/ https://www.irif.fr/~jch/software/sfu/ Ion (the first one) was built with extensibility in mind. Each service runs in its own container, so you can just fork ion-app-web [0]. You continue to get the backend improvements though. We are working on adding RTMP/SIP bridges as their own nodes. There is also a generic 'AVP' node that will allows media processing. You can save to disk, or other custom stuff you define. If you are interested would love to have you involved. Hop on Slack [1] or feel to just leave ideas/feedback on Github!

I have worked with the library a good bit, and it is definitely getting there. There is still too much reliance on ssrcs and simulcast is not directly supported yet. There is discussion of a v3 API on the horizon which is interesting as well. I have used it well in multiple cases, the library is clean and the responsiveness of devs on the slack channel is great. Once it gets simulcast, I may build my own Jitsi kinda thing with it. Also as already mentioned by the other comment, Ion is the main one they are building.
