Ok stop with the E2EE encrypted. Literally if you're running your own hardware, you don't "Need" E2E. You need to understand your attack surface, your vulnerabilities, and your goals. E2EE is not the optimal use case for everyone and everything.

#12Obligatory: has anyone used this before?
Never even heard of it.
This has been around for a while. Why isn't it in the Ubuntu repository?

- Zoom does not support self-hosting
- Self-hosting Jitsi is not the optimal use case for everyone.
People are free to choose between Jami and Jitsi, and it’s great to be able to have different options based upon your use case.

For people to be able to find you on the Internet, you need a Googlable name that has nothing else associated with it.

I could use clarification on this. Lets start with the assumption that I have my own machine/router/cable modem....and I want to talk with my girlfriend, who also uses one of my machines/routers/cable modems that I spec'd, procured, set up, and administrate for her.
Would I be wrong to be concerned about the potential for contractors to review private video that was captured/re transmitted by the central servers, e.g. for machine learning training purposes or other "internal" service quality checks? And potentially capturing some of that video if they find it interesting and potentially sharing it anonymously on viral social media? It seems that would be a rare occurrence, but possible.
Would end-to-end encryption be an appropriate way to eliminate that risk?

Why does a product name have to have a "meaning" behind it? Kodachrome was abstract.

That's true, otherwise it gets drowned in the noise. I guess, I was just commenting on the general trend of the way we name things today.
