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.”

@axbom Any idea if people have done any kind of data processing agreements in the GDPR sense with the Signal Foundation?
I would expect it to be a dealbreaker that it is a US legal entity.
@mjj It's an interesting point. The way it works Signal doesn't store any information about its users nor any chats... they're all on the user's device. As long as one trusts this, it doesn't matter if a government can request data, Signal doesn't have it.
@axbom Right. I assume there is a routing, but if it is E2EE with local key, there is not much fun in that.
