Yeah I figured that might be the case. It was in the works for a while available on their community servers, but the server beta just came out in October, I'm going try it out myself this weekend too

 

Been trying to figure out a user friendly alternative that I can get my less technical friends to transition to. We all use Signal already for messaging but it just doesn't fulfill our screenshare needs.

Most important feature it needs is the ability to screenshare with system audio, such as for streaming games or watching videos.

I'd ideally also like it to be E2EE just for the sake of privacy and security.

From what I've read and looked into it seems the closest thing that meets my needs would be Teamspeak 6 as you can host it yourself, and with the new update it now allows screenshare with audio (either as P2P or via server).

As far as I can tell chat messages don't persist by default but it can be enabled (and this would be a feature my friends would really want too).

I currently have a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ but I'm aware it's a bit old and is ARM so I'm thinking of buying a Pi 5.

Do you think I'm on the right track here or are there any other options this community would recommend?

This is the real answer, most people don't care but they like banding together and having someone else be the "other group"

My company is pretty lax, where I live you're entitled to 20 days paid leave by law but a contractor in my team had unlimited leave and made good use of it, she would travel pretty frequently, but she would still meet all her deadlines so management were fine with it

I have an LCD screen I got 15 years ago that I still use as a secondary monitor for my PC. It's 1360x768 so the resolution is low but it's perfect for YouTube on the side or messaging programs

I don't cut my hair (hate it being touched by other people), pluck my eyebrows every week or so to prevent a unibrow, and shave my face once or twice a week (when I have something on or going into the office). My hairline is fine for now but as I get older I'll probably end up shaving it all off and going bald

You'll be fine, both in Japan and back home I've lent people my card and vice versa, the only time I ever had someone look at the name was buying something from Bic Camera. It was over 5k yen so I wanted to get the tax discount, and they looked at my passport and compared the name on my debit card.

I own the domain firstname.countrycode so my email address is email@firstname.countrycode, haven't really had many people comment on it though. the previous owner didn't do anything with it and I thought about buying it from him, but a few years ago he forgot to renew it so I snatched it up

I was in Berlin last month and spent €16.50 for a 50ml bottle

From what I remember when I used to use it there were a lot of Americans, and Irish people that emigrated but wanted to keep in the loop

I'd contact the airline and see what they say. I've been on a flight before where one of the passengers had a severe peanut allergy so there were none on board, and an announcement was made warning not to consume them during the flight.
