Re: Libre software for video calls
Hi!
Wire has a GPL3 licensed client. Not sure about the server. For me Wire
worked great so far and I also use it on my phone.
Just wanted to throw that one in.

Thanks Zelphir. I know Wire client is free software as it was
mentioned by the FSF twice[1][2]. But I am curious how do you use
Wire. How about video calls? How about voice call? How many people you
talk with?

Hi!
I use it on my laptop and phone. I've used it for texting and voice
chats / calls. A friend also used it sharing their camera with me as
well. So far it was all 1-to-1 communication.
So far I did not have any issues with it.
The phone app has some negative reviews, but I did not experience any of
the mentioned issues so far.
I wish it was not a centralized service and looked into Gajim + OMEMO
support. I wanted to build everything in the most up to date version,
including GTK and stuff, but that proved waaaay too much work and I got
stuck, so Wire is what I use currently.
