Video calls, what current solutions
-
@domubpkm I have tried Jitsi in the browser, and it seemed to work fine.
-
@domubpkm You can always make a site into a webapp. Currently I use the Element webapp (app.element.io) and tested video calling on it today. (I use it sideways to get max usability out of it). Works great.

@totalrando Element not working on OP5 can't scroll to video call option with webapp, morph or WayDroid version.
Edit: Keeping in mind I do not make video calls
@TotalRando Do you need an account for video calls on element
@Moem Was this from a jitsi desktop to a phone or phone to phone. I can only find a download for jitsi desktop. Just trying to work out how easy this is to use for people at this stage. -

No.
I just went to the Jitsi website and opened a room to see whether it would see my camera and pick up my mic, and it did.
Jitsi can be used inside the browser, without installing anything. -
@domubpkm - https://whereby.com works well in my tests, and is a privacy respecting FOSS service as a plus.

@lakotaubp On Element you need a Matrix account. You also need a sufficiently sized screen or to hold it sideways. Once you are in an Element chat the video and phone options are on the top right.

@domubpkm right now there is a skype webapp available in the OpenStore. It does work quite well. Give it a try. Skype has one big advantage over other video-messengers since it is available for every platform, intel, arm, windows, ios, smartphone and desktop. And now on ubuntu touch.

https://open-store.io/app/zwebtelegram.josele13 or a Webber webapp telegram z should be a good answer but i haven't tried yet.
Hello @bhdouglass . Why this webapp isn't seen (on Volla only ?) on the line of new or updated apps of OpenStore.click ? -
@domubpkm webapps won't show in the new/update app list on the front page of the OpenStore app. But you can still find it if you browse or search for the app.
