Fitsi

Fitsi is a free and open-source, self-hosted video conferencing system. It is designed to be a lightweight alternative to proprietary solutions like Zoom or Google Meet. Fitsi is built with a focus on simplicity and privacy, allowing users to host their own video calls without relying on external servers.

The software is based on the Jitsi Meet web application and can be deployed on a personal server or a virtual private server. Its core functionality includes real-time audio and video communication, screen sharing, and text chat. Fitsi supports encrypted video conferencing, ensuring that conversations remain private between participants. It is compatible with most modern web browsers and does not require any installations for participants to join a call.

Fitsi is particularly appealing to individuals and organizations who prioritize data control and security. By hosting their own instance, users can manage their data and customize the conferencing experience to their specific needs. The project is actively developed and maintained by a community of volunteers.
