Gabe Newell believes piracy is a result of inferior service or access. I believe the original poster is stating that piracy has become the answer here because it’s the only place to find this media.

There is an effort to reterm away from the dehumanizing and victim blaming “Pig Butchering” to “Romance Baiting”.

I think this is the answer. Thanks for your recommendation. I’ll test this out soon. It seems to check all the boxes and I found this website providing good reasons to use it.

The reasons I prefer Jitsi Meet to Zoom include the following:

1. no subscriptions are required to use all the features of Jitsi Meet;
2. unlike Zoom, Jitsi Meet does not require you to sign up;
3. unlike Zoom, Jitsi Meet does not require the installation of an application — it runs in Google Chrome or Firefox;
4. unlike the free version of Zoom, Jitsi Meet does not impose a time limit on the length of the meeting;
5. unlike the free version of Zoom, Jitsi Meet does not have a limit on the number of meeting attendees;
6. Jitsi Meet provides end-to-end encryption for one-to-one video calls*;
7. I find the performance of Jitsi Meet better than Zoom, which seems to be corroborated in basic benchmarking by Jitsi Meet’s developers (‘WebRTC vs. Zoom – A Simple Congestion Test‘);
8. I find image quality better in Jitsi Meet;
9. I find Jitsi Meet on a desktop/laptop more intuitive and easier to use than Zoom;
10. if I share audio in Zoom for Linux, the audio is very distorted**;
11. I find the UI of the Jitsi Meet app for Android easy to use (the app can be installed via Google Play);
12. Jitsi Meet is open-source, so anyone can inspect the source code;
13. if I wanted to, I could download the Jitsi software to my own server and set up a Jitsi Meet server to handle meetings instead of using the Cloud server provided by 8×8, Inc. (the company that develops the Jitsi Meetings software).
