  1. Rob's jit.si server has been "repurposed" since this broadcast. He pointed out to me that the default jit.si server is encrypted and pretty secure - just be sure to use a password with it. Of course, your own server (or a server maintained by someone you explicitly trust) would be better.

  2. The advantage of Jit.si is it's easier to learn than Zoom was. Yes, I believe you can use 30 people at once on Jit.si Some features of Jit.si are free, whereas on Zoom these same features are paid. I'm remembering that Jit.si has less of a limit on the time you can be on a call with it, for starters.

  3. I hear from Brax chat forums that many people find "snicket" to also be easy to setup and use.

  4.  @RaiseYourVibes333  Over on Brax.me, Rob Braxman has crafted a "more secure" email service he calls "braxmail." You can read about what makes it unique by joining Brax.me and finding the Community chat "braxmail."

  5. Rob has stated previously that biometric data cannot be changed as passwords can be updated. So that's a big disadvantage to using your fingerprint, your face or your iris as I.D. Besides, a password can be legally protected; in some legal situations, biometrics cannot be withheld.

  6. On Thursday, June 9th 2022 Rob featured a live stream on this topic and also XMPP. (or if you're reading this within an hour of my posting this, maybe you can attend?) The first half hour is Rob's presentation content, the rest of the live stream is answering participants questions.
