Shame they rely on STUN, you could transmit connection information
over xDCC. But that doesn’t support relating I suppose.

Still. Very cool. :)

Because IRC was lacking vain and shallow people?

it's a client, you can't add it to a server, but you can probably host
it for others.

Kiwi's plugin integrates a separately-installed Jitsi Meet:

Convos use WebRTC, which again require STUN and TURN in many cases.
Not all though: You can talk to people on your LAN without the need
for STUN/TURN. If that is your usecase, then I suggest setting a bogus
\`CONVOS\_STUN=stun://localhost:3478\` value.

Would be awesome! I did look at some of the suggested implementations,
but they all send \*very\* big messages overe IRC. My version
compresses the WebRTC signalling to avoid flooding the IRC servere.
