Hi,
I’m looking for a E2EE and decentralized (or self hosted) videoconferencing that would have the following feature
- video or voice-only call
- share screen
- files transfer (optional)
- text chat
( all of it E2EE )
I’m considering Jitsi meet, that seem the meet those requirements
Do you know better alternatives or do you have remarks about Jitsi ?
Thanks.
If the people you’re talking to will make or have accounts, https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/ should have more useful information for you.
If people don’t want to make accounts, I know about https://framatalk.org/ (from https://degooglisons-internet.org/ (from https://framasoft.org/)) but I haven’t used that software myself.

You can run it on local hosting or in the cloud using their deployments. It takes all of two clicks. Most important thing is to be hosting it either on arbitrary silicon or on your own hardware. I’ve used Jitsi for secure conversations and can recommend it “well enough”.
Alternatively, if your project is smaller and you don’t want to spring for a $12 a month rental price for an ec2, Signal also meets those requirements, and has some other additional niceties such as disappearing messages, secure payments, voice texting. However, since there is no anything being hosted by Signal since its peer to peer, you are limited to I think 4 people in a video call.
