For learning, there is BigBlueButton https://bigbluebutton.org

Thank you very much, but it seems to have a 60 minute limitation for each meeting and disabled recording, and also requires registration. It's popup this message: Due to increased demand, recordings are temporarily disabled and the maximum duration of a meeting has been reduced to 60 minutes on this server. (k8s).

Thanks, I don't understand how to start a video call session, but I'll calmly get there :)

It's basically a free jitsu instance to use and test https://www.fairkom.eu/en/fairmeeting

That's for the demo site. These limitations aren't inherent to the bigbluebutton platform. If you deploy it on your own machine (It's suggested to do it on servers not VMs but for small teams it may be more than enough) without such limitations.
