FSF ☛ Jitsi Meet: An often-overlooked member benefit
When you interact with the free software community as much as I do, rattling off a line like this is probably easier than it should be. Every workday and most weekends, I talk to people who consider spinning up an instance of something as trivial, even when it's a program as complex, as Jitsi. While the difficulty of hosting services for yourself is overblown (unless it's email!), most people don't have this kind of luxury. It's easy enough to write "if you're able," but for most, that "if" is a big one, especially if you're going to do it without forking over your freedom in the process.
