Time to use Framatalk instead of the main instance. Framatalk is an instance of Jitsi Meet.
That’s a little far away for me to use. I might look at things that are closer
Pretty sure this is due to people abusing the previous system for CSAM-type stuff:
Might have been useful to indicate this is about Jitsi requiring MS or G accounts for the official instance….
I could understand requiring an account with Jitsi itself, but needing that account to be Facebook, Google, or MS seems to be at odds with the type of person who would use an encrypted video chat in the first place.
