Jitsi is a collection of open Source projects which provide state-of-the-art video conferencing capabilities that are secure, easy to use, and easy to self-host. The Jitsi Meet project (Jitsi Video Bridge) is a tried and true bandwidth-efficient WebRTC-compatible SFU (server-based) solution from our gracious FOSS partner, Jitsi.
