With jitsi meet now requireing registration (something I do understand, … but I just happen not to have a google, MS or meta account), I am looking at selfhosting a jitsi meet for personal use.
Has somebody already done this? What are your experience? What are the hardware requirements? Docker or native? Linux or other OS? (FreeBSD)?
I ran it via Docker, it was easy enough, consumed close to no resources, upgrading was tricky a few times. Then I got rid of that server and did not continue hosting Jitsi, started freeloading on Freifunk Munchen public instance.
Any particular reason to use the ffmuc? Are there other instances worth considering?
No real reason. It’s stable so I keep using it. Look at the official list: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/community/community-instances/
