@switchingsoftware @uniq You might want to add @senfcall to BigBlueButton provider-examples ;)

@switchingsoftware @uniq Senfcall is missing for BigBlueButton and the correct website for Jitsi is https://jitsi.org

@switchingsoftware @uniq if I may make a suggestion - NextCloud's "poll" app is a superb Doodle Poll replacement.

@switchingsoftwareYou could addhttps://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox/LeavingTheCloud, it's been around for many years.

@niposI thought https://jitsi.org is for the software itself. Video conferencing link is https://meet.jit.si@switchingsoftware @uniq

@switchingsoftware MyPaint would be a fantastic addition to the Adobe CC alternatives. It is an outstanding painting application, its brush engine is used in GIMP, it's under active development, and can replace Photoshop for sketching and painting. You could think if it as a lighter Krita, but with a UI more optimised for interaction without the mouse, and excellent on light hardware with touch screens.

Hi @Azt3c true, but we should link to the software site itself so users can explore it before using - we fixed it 🙂 The link for video conferencing is also on top of the instances list@nipos fyi, I found a project sub page specifically for Jitsi Meet and linked to this one 🙂

@switchingsoftware I see Jami mentioned there. How stable is it nowadays? (I'm especially interested to hear from people who use it regularly.)

Jami was tested by @strypey and others: https://write.as/c7fda5x13qzve.mdIt does have conferencing, but it's a bit awkward to use yet.@switchingsoftware

@maxigaz Overall the #Jami voice conference was pretty usable. That was almost a year ago. I'd be keen to test again with a larger group (if you're keen we coordinate tests using Matrix: #voicechat:matrix.org ).The biggest complaint I have about Jami today is that text message delivery is still too patchy to sustain a conversation, there's no group text chat, and messages can't sync between apps. Devs assure me that group chat is coming and will improve all.@clacke @switchingsoftware

@switchingsoftware Hi! Is there any alternative web to linktree? 😀
