• Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users

  The beginning of enshitification of discord (while 100% expected) for some reason hits harder then any other service I've used throughout all these years. It has entirely replaced social media for me. It just felt more organic to me then anything else. So... Since I've heard about the ads coming to discord, and I have looked into alternatives. They do exist, in varying quality, and there are programs for some of... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Qilin: A Starter Project Template For Every Open Source Project

  GitHub Discussions can also be a great place for support as long as these are regularly monitored. Another option along the same lines is Discourse and the Open Source Matrix which is used by quite a few Open Source and community-based projects. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• A man has been swatted 47 times for making a joke about Norm Macdonald

  Tangential: the article notes that Telegram is an “encrypted messaging app”. While this is technically true, it's worth keeping in mind that it's not end-to-end encrypted, so it's less secure in that regard than, say, Signal or even WhatsApp. Telegram does have opt-in end-to-end encrypted one-on-one chats, but those are very inconvenient to use. For a properly encrypted chat app, including group chats (opt-in),... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Launching Default End-to-End Encryption on Messenger

  I'd love something like the Matrix [0] data model (JSON messages aggregated in an eventually-consistent chatroom CRDT) transmitted over something like simplex for metadata resistance. [0] https://matrix.org. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Meta is pulling the plug on Messenger chats on Instagram

  Trillian mod here. There's this new thing called Beeper, works on matrix.org. It's not as the good old times, but I'm currently using whatsapp, FB messenger, discord, telegram, signal, imessage and a few more. It's not Cerulean experience, but it's... Slowly improving. Source: 7 months ago

• WebRTC for the Curious

  Another open-source SFU I've had great experience with is Livekit[0]. Great docs, modern, easy to deploy (it's a golang binary), and supports a number of egress options too if you want to record the media during a stream to an external system. With their cloud product they've also built a really cool 'mesh-based' SFU-CDN that allows peers to connect to an SFU closest to them and have their media broadcast to other... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Anyone have experience with LiveKit for voice and if it's better than the webRTC?

  I love the service and would recommend everyone dump the webRTC integrated service and make the switch. It was quick and easy to make the changes with livekit.io setup providing everything I needed to get the custom service set up and running. No command line config is needed and only set up on my GM side of Foundry VTT. My users only have to select their player token the first time they log on as usual, and... Source: 7 months ago

• List of Top Twilio Video Alternatives

  I found https://livekit.io/ which is completely open sourced and you can even self host it. Source: 7 months ago

• STUNner Kubernetes media gateway for WebRTC

  This release ships lots of new features to the already comprehensive set of them. Currently, we offer several working tutorials on how to set up STUNner with widely used WebRTC media servers and other applications that use WebRTC in Kubernetes, such as: - LiveKit - Jitsi - mediasoup - n.eko - Kurento.

• What is the easiest way to get voice and video?

  Install the LiveKit module (https://foundryvtt.com/packages/avclient-livekit). Then register for the free LiveKit tier (https://livekit.io/) with 50GB/month (that's probably enough for 4 people at least 8 times a month for 3 hours from my experience). Easy to use, good quality, we had no issues so far. Source: about 1 year ago
