@Blort
* #Jami: not ready for primetime yet. No group text chat, no message sync between clients (which client happens to receive the message keeps it), message delivery is horribly unreliable. Voice chat/ conference is pretty good, especially for a P2P app, but be aware the user who initiates the conference is hosting it, so pick the user with the most powerful computer and largest bandwidth. Will be great one day.
@Blort
* #Signal: haven't tried, don't trust: https://www.coactivate.org/projects/disintermedia/signal-fault
* #NextCloudTalk: haven't tested but I'm keen to. My bones tell me this could be the one, especially in combo with a family NC for photos etc.
My pick for now?
* #Riot: easy UX, reliable message delivery, functional group chat. It all gets a bit cludgier when you turn encryption on, but a friend has his family using it and says it's working well.
@Blort the only thing that worries me about NextCloud Talk is it uses #WebRTC and works in-browser, so it might suffer from the same issues as #JitsiMeet, #PalavaTV etc. On the WebRTC stacks I've tried, you need a fairly late model computer and a pretty fast internet connection to get them to do anything beyond text chat.
