JayFtc-members; I did a bit of looking and started an etherpad with some pros/cons of zoom v meetpad for TC meetings as I see them; I'm going to be honest, going into this I wanted meetpad/jitsi to be the answer but there's a lot in both directions depending on what you value 19:20
JayFhttps://etherpad.opendev.org/p/JayF-Nov-2023-MeetPad-v-Zoom19:20
JayFIt's also possible I'm wrong/misinterpreted some of this, please put comments if so19:21
JayFone big open question I have is if there is a "dial in" option for meetpad/jitsi; that's a big benefit that zoom provides that gives a lot of accessibility 19:21
dansmithI kinda doubt there's a dial-in19:22
JayFme too, but I'm saying it's an unknown because I'm not sure and don't want to say anything definitively when we have people in this channel who'd know for sure :)19:22
dansmithdoes jitsi support background blurring? I don't use that personally (although I should because of the mess behind me) but some people definitely need that19:24
JayFYes it does, at a performance hit.19:24
JayFIt was one of the pieces I tested, didn't list it there as it's roughly equivalent; both do it; both need more juice to do it19:24
dansmithack, just wondering19:26
JayFmy biggest concern with moving off zoom is around accessibility for lower end hardware/mobile devices/dial-in-telephone19:27
dansmithyeah, well, even though I don't have low-end hardware, making my high-end hardware behave like low-end hardware while on a call is not great either :)19:34
clarkbfwiw I find that jitsi meet and zoom have similar performance in the browser today19:36
JayFfair; but I'm less worried about folks like me and you getting a warm office for 30 minutes and more worried about the people that could be completely excluded by our technology choices19:36
clarkbthe only improvement performance wise with zoom comes from the native client which was broken for opensuse due to broken package signing when I Finally uninstalled it and went full web client for zoom19:37
JayFWas your local browser configured to use hardware accelaration?19:37
clarkbI don't think so beacuse its linux and chrome and amd19:37
clarkbiirc only intel gpus get hardware acceleration on linux19:37
JayFAMD does, too, pretty well supported actually.19:38
* clarkb checks19:38
JayFwhat driver you using? if it's amdgpu, you're golden19:38
dansmithhardware acceleration on apple arm in the native client is, as you would expect, stellar19:38
clarkbya I'm using the free driver. Looks like some hardware acceleration is enabeld and other bits are not. Not video ecnode and decode are disabled whcih I suspect are important for calls19:39
JayFthose are free-as-in-speech to enable as long as you are OK with firmware blobs19:39
clarkbcanvas, compositing, rasterization, webgl some a coupel others are enabled. TIL19:39
JayFyou are probably just some config away from getting that going19:39
JayFat least on gentoo, ymmv on suse, I guess19:40
dansmithJayF: sorry, the article you linked was about them doing that over the summer, and they've since reverted their policy to say they do *not* do that19:43
dansmithhttps://www.theverge.com/2023/8/11/23828649/zoom-communications-like-data-train-ai-artificial-intelligence-models19:43
dansmithI thought you were asserting it was still a problem,19:43
dansmithbut I see you had the positive url, negative language19:43
JayFno, I'm saying the opposite: it's been asserted to me it's a problem, I'm saying that is wrong, it's not training on us19:43
dansmithyep, I'm with you now19:44
JayFor more appropriately19:44
JayFif they *are* training on us19:44
JayFOIF just got a new income stream19:44
JayFheh19:44
dansmithI thought (from the URL) that was an article about them *actually* doing that19:44
JayFno, but I should've gone the next step and checked the TOS the first time thru19:45
JayFespecially given it was the verge19:45
dansmithlet's remove my AFAIK and children to avoid the confusion19:45
dansmith++19:46

fungiwe debated some of this recently too, when discussing meetpad becoming the default for the next ptg. it was suggested that while people bring up dial-in as a missing feature, it's not clear anyone actually would use it if we turned that on. also there are mobile apps for android and ios, from what i understand20:04
JayFI see things like dial-in as a valuable fallback for a recurring meeting moreso than a need for a point-in-time event like a vPTG.20:05
JayFsimply because I assume for vPTG most of us have cleared the deck moreso than a recurring upstream meeting20:06
dansmithwe had at least one dial-in participant in the nova room at one point20:06
dansmithI think it's not worth infra implementing that for meetpad, but it's one of those "...but zoom just has it for free so it's an option" sort of things20:07
