        I am super excited for https://www.huddlehq.io/ https://www.huddlehq.io/ Used it for a few 1:1s and sprint plannings. I love it!

        Wanted to say that out of all the alternatives, this seems most interesting. Is there an info or about page where I can read your approach?

          I found the about page here: https://dj3d.io/about https://dj3d.io/about

        thanks for sharing! I'm currently working on something similar so it's nice to learn about the open source projects you used to build it on your about page. Very cool project!

  This and other links look great, and more natural/simpler than the 2d board. But gatherly doesn't seem ready to serve my family and I if I have to request info (I can't just sign up). What's the best, simple app like this that allows easy subconversations that my family, parents, other non-technical folks could easily join? I don't mind paying to host but it has to be easy for them to log in and use.

    I run a completely free service https://firemeet.io https://firemeet.io Though I think gather's UX is actually very friendly to non-technical people!
    • eatonphil 6y ago
      That's cool! How is it funded?
      • revalo 6y ago
        I've engineered it to be very inexpensive to run. I work on high efficiency video codecs, so one benefit is that I get to sometimes test my codec's and get real user feedback. I personally don't find virtual stuff fun, the pandemic is really sad, so wanted to make something available for public use. :)

    You should try Remo https://remo.co https://remo.co It’s very easy to branch out into sub conversations and targeted at non technical folks.

  I think all the competitors show that there's a huge need right now, but I don't think anyone's quite got it yet. We're currently far ahead in terms of reliability (used for hundreds of paid events every month) and the level to which you can flesh out your environments, but I'm excited to see what the landscape looks like over the next year! One I'm personally a huge fan of is Mozilla Hubs (https://hubs.mozilla.com/ https://hubs.mozilla.com/), which is 3D and VR compatible. It's not accessible enough to people today, but it's very, very impressive!
