Jitsi's official instance now requires you to authenticate with Facebook, Google, or Microsoft to host a call

Jitsi was a quick-and-easy (not to mention private and anonymous) video chat tool for friends and also strangers. Jitsi's killer feature was being a FOSS 1-click, no sign-up call service.
Now you'll have to deploy your own instance if you want to avoid authenticating with Facebook, Google, or Microsoft (Github). But by deploying your own instance, you are effectively no longer anonymous, as you'll need to provide billing info to your host, or provide your home IP so folks can connect to it.

This list is dynamically refreshed and provides a fair amount of alternative servers:

#TBOT Show 7: The Significance of Dorsey’s Bitchat, Worlds First eSIM Hack, Mexico’s Digital ID, New Show Source Insights
Took a week off and now I’m back. 😎 (with a new addition to the show?!) (also - big sorry for the show being 40 minutes)
WATCH THE SHOW ON SUBSTACK

Here’s the stories for the week:
Jack #Dorsey’s #Bitchat - The Real Story: The tech mogul Jack Dorsey released a censorship proof messaging app in late June - named Bitchat. It runs a #bluetooth#mesh network, end to end #e2e#encryption, and rolling IDs and is picking up traction. I share my thoughts on the app, and concerns I have - but that’s not even the real story. I think Jack has a bigger message than just the app.
World’s First #eSIM Hack: A security lab out of Poland just demonstrated a hack on one of the largest SIM providers for IoT devices. We’ll get techy in our understanding and ask the question, could this impact our phones?
#DigitalID, Coming Soon To #Mexico: The Mexican government has signed a new #Biometric#ID law, known as the CURP. How is this enforced and what does it mean for Mexican residents? Find out today.
Decentralized #Video Conferencing: Recently I’ve been relying more on video conferences instead of calling people, especially while traveling. Good thing I’ve got the #Jitsi app, I’ll show you my setup!
