Somehow I collect low-powered laptops, and it would be nice to video chat on them without teetering on the edge of my desktop being frozen while I do it. Unfortunately, aside from Zoom - which doesn’t have an ARM+Linux client - most of the video conferencing software I know of are WebRTC-based.

My question - can anyone suggest video conferencing software that is speedier than your average browser-based solution? I expect that whatever it is will require the other end to run the same software, and that’s ok.

For reference, Google Meet and Jitsi Meet are the two I’ve tried. I briefly tried Teams, but it was having none of it.

Thank you!

    I somehow collect old laptops too, fellow non-collector. Gotta stop this hobby before it gets out of control.
