Teams is dogshit. Every time they push an upgrade, it makes my job selling it so much more difficult.

Godspeed Germany, I hope you find a better solution shortly. It can’t be that difficult.

It is not. I am part of a small company (say 25 people) and we use combination of Rocket Chat, Jitsi, and Nextcloud (among other apps). It is literally unlimited licenses, forever, and it will keep working until the heat death of the universe, with no need to update ever until it stops working. Costs 60$ a month for a server to run these, plus Gitlab and tons of other services.

Yes, a fellow Jitsi user in the wild!

How is it treating you?

Apart from having to write a custom script to automatically upload recordings to Peertube, pretty good! Some people have issues connecting from their work network because apparently our domain is not on some allow list for calls. But everything works out of the box, quality is nice, Rocket Chat has an integration. The only thing I am missing is scheduling calls where the host is one predefined user, and everyone has to wait until they connect, and moderator being the first to connect. It is stable, streaming works, UI is partially crude and some features do not work out of the box when not configured separately. But hey, it is free and no big corpo is snooping around!
