I self host
You just happen to be lucky. It's not super reliable in less than ideal situations, but I expect it to improve.
Jitsi has also been pivoting to a similar setup. They are masters at SIP and voice handling, and it's still iffy at best.
It was unreliable but now it works fine. I can't really say for certain how it will work for as setups vary but for me it was a life saver as teams and Jitsi weren't working
Good to know!
How does it compare to Jitsi?
Works better but non public
What do you mean non public? One can also hosts Jitsi Meet.
I mean you need to host it somehow. Compare that to Jitsi where you can use someone else's instance
I found it marginal. Jitsi is nice but I didn't attempt self hosting, which looks like effort. Currently playing with Jami.
How do you like Jami so far ?
It seems ok in the small testing I've done, but I haven't really used it. Also I think the video encoder is too slow for my old phone. It works ok on the new one. Others here probably have more info than I do.
Avoid Jami
I love Nextcloud Talk, but my biggest annoyance with it is that text chats don't properly scroll to the bottom when new messages come in.
Does it work in Windows/Chrome? I have tried to make a call with a frend but it would not show Video/audio in his side. It has worked from Firefox to Androidapp for me in the past
