Peer to Peer WebRTC with https://meet.jit.si/ should get a bit busier now!



Jitsi Meet (in common with other WebRTC videoconferencing systems in common use) is only P2P when there are exactly 2 people in the meeting. (And even then it may need to use a server depending on the type of connectivity you have.)

P2P videoconferencing beyond a few participants isn't very practical in the real world, due to the bandwidth requirements rapidly exceeding what a typical user's connection can reliably transmit without unacceptable loss/delay/jitter.


Jitsi or any other p2p system is limited when more than 2 people are connected in the same room.
