  • Keep in mind you won't have proper DRM support if you go the SBC route.

  • Yeah, it's sad to see it in Zoom's hands, but it is still open source and receiving updates.

  • I've made some screenshots instead of a video. I hope you still get what the issue is.

    At the end there is no usuable call from the RocketChat client. But I can copy the meet.jit.si URL and open it in a browser.

    Originally I had an error message telling me that Windows doesn't know what to do with jitsi-meet:// links, but that doesn't show up anymore for some reason. Maybe because of me messing with the registry to solve the issue, but I've actually removed the registry key I had created before.

  • What do you mean by “independent clients” - multi device login?

    Yeah. Right now you have to have Signal running and connected on a phone. If the phone is off or not connected to the internet, you can't use the Desktop client.

  • Is the list really by playtime on the Steam Deck?

  • There isn't really a premise per se as we are a decentralized team, but the details don't really matter.

  • I wrote this integration

    Oh, nice! I can make a video later on how it looks on my machine. I even tried fiddling with the registry to force them to be opened with RocketChat, but that didn't work either.

  • Things I will take a look at:

    Things I will not take a look at:

    Feel free to add more suggestions.

  • Voice is a requirement as well.
    EDIT: But I could get by by hosting Jitsi for that.

  • The server is not hosted on premise and the team will exchange communication that requires to remain private. That's why I really need E2EE for everything (and why RocketChat is not an option as E2EE is not fully implemented).

  • First of all Jitsi isn't part of the rocketchat-server package, so you need to set it up yourself or use a hoster, which both require separate accounts from the RocketChat ones.

    The specific issue I had on Windows was that RocketChat wasn't registered to handle jitsi-meet:// links, it would just open a blank "open with" Windows dialog everytime. In general the "integration" seems lacking, the whole UX is really bad compared to Matrix/Element where voice calls just work.

  • I would expect search to be added

    That's what I expected fo regular Element for Android as well, but it never came into existence.

    Element X

    I fail to find a feature comparison between the two. Does it have feature parity with Element yet? If not, what's missing?

    Firefox

    Firefox is my main browser and has been for the last 15 years or so. It definitely was Firefox, but maybe I'm confusing it with a different issue. There definitely was some feature in Element Web that didn't work and told me to use Desktop instead, unless I'm imagining things now.

    Nheko

    Interesting, I'll take a look.
    EDIT: Nheko is NOT a mobile client. I've misinterpreted your statement.

    https://matrix.org/ecosystem/clients/

    That unfortunately doesn't specify the extend of the E2EE support (like search), but I appreciate your effort.

  • I don't think SimpleX is the right tool for collaboration efforts. I could be wrong though. The last time I tried it was two years or so ago.

  • Not really what I am looking for. Neither is it self-hostable, nor do you have access to independent clients. Plus the requirement for phone numbers makes it undesirable.
    Also, I'm not really looking for a simple messenger and more for something that is useful in organizing a team.

  • I've used Session for quite a while. It is not something I would use in a professional environment where reliability is required.

  • How much effort have you actually put into trouble shooting the issue? Maybe it is just a wrongly set CPU governor (performance, instead of ondemand or something else)? Or a certain kernel flag that have to be set on boot?
