Jitsi Desktop is a free open-source audio/video and chat communicator that supports protocols such as SIP, XMPP/Jabber, IRC and many other useful features.
Please do not confuse this project with Jitsi Meet, the online video conferencing solution with a free instance at https://meet.jit.si.
Jitsi Desktop is the heritage of Jitsi Meet. While some components are still used in e.g. Jigasi, the project is not actively developed anymore. Improvements, bugfixes and builds are entirely based on community contributions.
Download the installers from GitHub releases.
Ubuntu users can add the PPA
