Call on Linux desktop not working - sh.itjust.works

I can’t seem to figure out how to receive phone calls on desktop. I am using stock Gajim with chatterbox.us [http://chatterbox.us] . Is there a configuration I need to do?

Most to desktop friction

Call Them. Replace Them. - sh.itjust.works

I love everything about simplex. I want it to be the messenger for me. But the friction from mobile app to desktop is too much. My lifestyle and work mode have me on both laptop and desktop often. I prefer typing on desktop with the real keyboard. Am I alone in thinking the friction is too much?

I just discovered this app. I know there are folks out there who think location tracking is the opposite of privacy but it’s a nice security tool to keep track of your loved ones. I found this one thats fully end to end encrypted. I am currently in the works to migrate my family of 10 over. (This includes my grandparents who are less than tech savvy) Just thought I would share in the event there was a father like me looking for a similar tool that doesn’t sell your location data or breach your data.

Ive been on the hunt for a while for something like this. I started looking again since the life360 breach. This is nearly perfect. Just need the iOS app to have a little more support and be in the app store for my less techy friends/family.

VPN on TMobile home 5G internet calyx - sh.itjust.works

I have calyx hotspot/ tmobile home internet. Ive been having issues with my work Palo Alto Global Protect VPN and tailscale. Neither of them seem to stay connected. They will work for a bit after I reboot my modem. I am using the glinet spitz 5g modem. Any tips for band, MTU, or APN for better experience?

Jellyfin + Tailscale + Hotel TV

Jellyfin + Tailscale + Hotel TV - sh.itjust.works

More of a tailscalequestions I suppose, but the usecase is heavily this community. Double NAT so no port forwarding. Using Tailscale fine to get to jellyfix/plex. But how would one use it on a hotel TV or at a friends house/TV ? Thought?
