I’d like to be able to chat from an Android phone without a SIM card.
Edit: Since several people have mentioned it, I’m including this note at the top. There are security issues with using a temporary number to register even if it is not needed to maintain the account. Anyone can gain access to the number and use it for account recovery, etc. I’m not an infosec person at all, but this seems pretty obviously bad. Some services will work fine with a landline or other permanent phone number, as long as you retain private access to the number.


isn’t that all google code?
Is it? I had no idea that was a potential accusation.
Edit: just did a quick search and found nothing indicating Jitsi is Google.
8x8 collects and gives to google https://jitsi.org/meet-jit-si-privacy/
and
the usage of the free meet.jit.si service, is not free of tracking, requires authentication at either Google, GitHub, or Facebook and is hosted at AWS which is not considered GDPR-compliant.

matrix is much better.
Last I checked matrix doesnt support videochats out of the box. A lot of people use jitsi plugged in to matrix deployments to handle this
Oh thanks!!!
