    Has anyone tried the VoIP features? How’s the bandwidth? How is it with far away countries?

    Super excited to see it come to fruitation at all though :D. I’d love a decentralized VoIP future!

      Is there a new VoIP implementation or are do you mean the existing one? If it’s the latter, it’s just a wrapper around a Jitsi meeting and it’s worked very well in my experience.

        Element did and still does use Jitsi for >2 participants. 1:1 calls are and have always been WebRTC based not using Jitsi. IIUC this update just has improvements to the WebRTC based 1:1 calls.

          Huh, really? I had a 1:1 call via Element on Android the other day and could swear it was all just Jitsi. Maybe it was just the UI that looked really similar.

            It might depend if the room is considered a “DM” or a multi-user room. Were there any bots or similar in the room that may have made Element decide that it was actually a >2 person conference?
