Being online it’s almost a necessity: from ordering food through work to entertainment. I’ve been wondering how to keep myself safe online. It’s obviously not possible to not get hacked, just take a look at the richest man Jeff Bezos got hacked [1], or recently many big US corporations and government agencies [2]. So the question about being safe online is not so much about if it’s possible, but how to limit the possibility of it.</p>https://tomasz.jarosik.online/posts/jitsi-2020/Tue, 06 Oct 2020 00:00:00 +0000https://tomasz.jarosik.online/posts/jitsi-2020/<p>This year allowed many people to work from home and because of that most of the communication had to be moved online. I always wanted to try to setup some easy to use video conferencing system, but my impression was that it’s really hard thing to do and to maintain. This year I finally discovered Jitsi (<a href="https://jitsi.org/">https://jitsi.org/</a>) for myself. Looked nice and simple: just send an URL and open it in a web browser, that’s it! But… can I self host it? Well, yes! I’ve been using my self-hosted version of Jitsi to chat with friends and family for last 6 months, and it works really well. Especially audio, it’s so clear and feels like real (not sure if it’s just a feeling, or a latency is very minimal or something else). Video is OK, similar to other video chat apps. And they provide apps for Android and iOS as well.</p>
