If you are seriously considering new default software for video meetings, don’t discount Signal.

Signal allows up to 40 people in the same meeting.

Using Signal Desktop, you can share a screen or separate window while on a call. You can share your screen if no one else is presenting. Your own video will not be shown while you are presenting.

To start or stop sharing while on a call, select the presenting icon with the box with an arrow pointing up.

Why Signal?

”State-of-the-art end-to-end encryption (powered by the open source Signal Protocol) keeps your conversations secure. We can't read your messages or listen to your calls, and no one else can either. Privacy isn’t an optional mode — it’s just the way that Signal works. Every message, every call, every time.”

Signal Messenger: Speak Freely

Say "hello" to a different messaging experience. An unexpected focus on privacy, combined with all of the features you expect.

@axbom my only issue with this is the need for phone numbers by everyone, or that changed, and you don't need phone number to register?
@potato_lisper I agree, this is a disadvantage. But less of a dilemma in situations where everyone’s phone number should already be known by all participants.

Telegram could also be an alternative. There I know for sure you can hide your number (and even sign up without one).
