I fully understand, that if terms of service of an anonymous, free service are violated, rules must change and anonymous usage cannot be permitted anymore.

However, if the new authentication scheme requires an account at either Google or Facebook or Microsoft, with no other option, that leaves a bad taste in the mouth.

It is not a practical problem, because there are hundreds of alternatives available, but IMHO it sends the wrong signal.

That being said, #JitsiMeet is a great piece of software, that has helped tremendously in staying independent of companies like Microsoft and Zoom. Esp. in times when in-person meetings were not possible. Self-hosting Jitsi Meet on #Debian is not hard, and the developers are friendly and helpful. Give it try!

Speaking of the wonderful #JitsiMeet: I'm still running it on a #Debian 11 #bullseye container. Is it safe to upgrade to Debian 12 #bookworm using the "stable" #deb packages from #Jitsi #apt repository? TIA!

I'm running it on bullseye/12, using the normal jitsi repos, if that helps?
in reply to Neil Brown

Yes, that helps, thank you! If it works for you, it should work for me 🙂

Could you send me your sources.list line, just to be sure, we are doing the same thing? TIA!
