This tutorial is going to show you how to install Jitsi Meet on Ubuntu 20.04 server. Jitsi Meet is a free open-source video conferencing software that works on Linux, macOS, Windows, iOS and Android. If you don’t trust Zoom, you can run your own video conferencing platform on your own server.
To run Jitsi Meet, you need a server with at least 1GB RAM. You can click this referral link to create an account at Vultr to get $50 free credit (for new users only). Once you have an account at Vultr, install Ubuntu 20.04 on your server and follow the instructions below. When you have dozens of users, consider upgrading your server hardware. The server should be close to your users, or the delay will be noticiable during online meetings.
You also need a domain name. I registered my domain name at NameCheap because the price is low and they give whois privacy protection free for life.
