Just a random person who likes building software and configuring Linux.

  • I recommend Peer Calls as an alternative. Peer Calls uses peer-to-peer communication similar to Jami. You can check out Peer Calls on Github for more info.

    So, in short, the things I really like about it:

    • Simple to selfhost - Only one Docker container with no dependencies (database, storage, etc.) and you only need to forward HTTP/S traffic.
    • Lightweight - You get voice and text chat; screen and file sharing. All of it directly P2P.
    • Private - Selfhosting the signaling server will grant you control over the only step which requires a central server during the WebRTC connection process.
    • No accounts - Just start using, no accounts are involved.


  • Definitely best to get that done ASAP. Forgejo being a drop-in replacement for Gitea won’t be guaranteed ever since the hard fork:

    To continue living by that statement, a decision was made in early 2024 to become a hard fork. By doing so, Forgejo is no longer bound to Gitea, and can forge its own path going forward, allowing maintainers and contributors to reduce tech debt at a much higher pace, and implement changes - whether they’re new features or bug fixes - that would otherwise have a high risk of conflicting with changes made in Gitea.
