After this announcement, I am planning to reject meetings organised in zoom. But the problem is that it’s really good. So, is there any privacy friendly and viable alternatives to zoom? It does not have to be open source because I nearly tried all alternatives. Your experiences?
Might want to run down through the standard list by popularity and choose based on your needs: https://alternativeto.net/software/zoom-cloud-meetings/
Keep in mind Signal can do some conferencing too. So look at some of the real time communication tools tool at https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/ .
Thing about conferencing is a lot of the large conferencing tools are not that secure in terms of full end to end encryption and they generally need a lot of infrastructure to support a lot of people so there is a question of who runs it and who pays for it and who secures it.
I will be interested in what others say.
Signal could be a good replacement, if it allows sharing a meeting link. Otherwise, you have to create a group for each meeting.
