almost inevitably technical issues that cause the meeting to bomb and <br>
some people don't seem to be able to get their cameras to work with it <br>
at all (while they can make it work with zoom). Jitsi also doesn't have <br>
features that the groups I'm with need in order to conduct large-scale <br>
performances (hundreds of participants) with live streaming. So, we use <br>
Zoom. I wish I knew of a free, open-source alternative that actually <br>
functions at scale. I'm all ears.<br>
