I’m looking into a few different chat servers, probably just for family on my tailnet.
I like the idea that simplex allows video chat. My server is a repurposed optiplex 3060so I think it should be able to handle it. Is anyone doing this? Do you think it’s worth it?
Should I be considering other options like XMPP?
I finally made it work last week. I was overcomplicating, as usual: nextcloud AIO includes all the requirements to run Talk, I just had to modify the config file to point at my domain and add a new entry at :8081 on my reverse proxy. Hosted a 2 hour video call with 3 friends without issues!
Well you are lucky, or they fixed their mess a way or another. I spent at least a full week to try to make it work, to no avail.
