Sometimes I feel like banging my head against a wall. Trying to suggest alternatives to spyware and proprietary systems, people don't get it .

I appreciate these are different ways, but they are all commercial, closed source and zoom just routes via china and is not even offering basic encryption for free users.
It does take a toll on us sometimes. But we are doing the Good Work, so take a minute and recharge. Your contribution is appreciated, Paul.
There's a lot of interests, commercial, government, political, etc behind many things. Speaking up and bringing your views has an impact.

I have access to BigBlueButton So we could use that here if we wanted video chat.
It is free to sign up to, so approving signups isn't an issue either, Maybe handy if we wanted to do some sort of video presentation or teaching, as you can upload pdf presentations and also have access to a whiteboard.

I completely agree with you Paul.
And Rob is right about recharging the batteries.
Sometimes I feel that I may not know about alternative systems because of my lack of dev skills.
But i've always been curious and it's quite hard to find even though being with you guys gives me some hope as we share the good stuff. there is a definite need for it.
I didn't try BigBlueButton even if I looked into it. Don't know if it uses AWS or other system...
