=== Video calls and conference ===
==== Jami ====
 
[https://jami.net/ Jami] is a pretty feature complete Skype/Zoom/Teams replacement that allows you to have virtual calls and meetings without any third party in the middle spying on what you're saying. It's service is decentralise, and aside from a little bit of help from a central server to established the initial connection, all the data sent and received directly between the parties who are using the program.
In this category, [https://jami.net/| Jami] and [https://jitsi.org/| Jitsi] are strong entries.
==== Jitsi ====
[https://jitsi.org/ Jitsi] is another strong contender, particularly if you want to speak with somebody who is resistant towards having to install another app/program. With Jitsi, you simply create a new meeting on one of many community-ran instances, and send out the unique link. Anyone can use this link to simply join you using any modern browser.
