Also, new in this release: BigBlueButton (another OSS video/call project).
This release removes Google Hangouts support (as Google killed it and rebranded it to Google Meet). Unfortunately, the Google Meet rebrand came with removing the API that was useful for third party tools like Zulip. I don't understand why they don't provide the brilliant API Jitsi has where you can just generate a URL containing a random meeting ID and everyone who clicks it gets the same meeting (which Google Hangouts did, at least if everyone was in the same G Suite team).
We also support Zoom (though note that Zulip Cloud is stuck in their marketplace approval process as it has been for months; supposedly it'll get approved any day now).

(And of course we're happy to integrate anything else that has a reasonable API)
- j1elo 6y agoIs BigBlueButton, or Zoom, covering different use cases than Jisti? or they are offered just for the sake of offering alternatives?
