Now the squares that have no video and could have been easily put away elsewhere are now big as ever and colorful!

Fuck full screen of presentations! You need to see people’s names on big ass squares covering the entire screen! That’s where the money is! There is always a banana stand! (Don’t know the context)

I can’t even get my InfoSec team to let us use all the features we already pay for in our M365 E5 license because they can’t figure out how to secure and govern it. Unfortunately nowadays bringing up great ideas that are open source to replace mediocre big tech products mostly gets laughed out of the room 😢

This is awesome. But I’m a little suspicious. How is it completely free? Seems like video conferencing would use a lot of resources

Only if you route the video through the server. The modern design is to establish a connection through the server, then send the video directly from peer to peer. You can look up STUN, TURN, and ICE if you want technical details.
