Side by side
A browser-based video conferencing platform with mobile apps and embeddable SDKs, offering screen sharing, chat, polls, breakout rooms and recording; usable free at meet.jit.si or self-hosted.
A self-hosted peer-to-peer WebRTC meeting app with browser rooms, screen sharing, chat, whiteboard and recording, and no time limits.
Self-hosting large meetings needs the full Jitsi stack (Prosody, Jicofo, videobridges) and proper bandwidth; meet.jit.si now requires a login.
Peer-to-peer meshes degrade beyond a handful of participants, and it is mainly one developer's project under AGPL.
