Not mentioned in the rest of the docs is this….you need to set up several sub-domains, namely: Use this: echo 'deb unstable/ ' > /etc/apt//jitsi-unstable.list We couldn’t get them to work with conferences – we could only get 1 person in a meeting which…er… isn’t a meeting! So, instead use the unstable sources, which means don’t use this: echo 'deb stable/ ' > /etc/apt//jitsi-stable.list Working out letsencrypt is soso documented but also easy, working out how to get desktop sharing working is barely documented. So the meeting links may look instead like If you still prefer to manually enter the Meeting ID from the homepage of Jitsi Meet, just fill the Meeting ID field with moderated/ to join with us.Ok.Jitsi initial install is easy. Oh, I decided to use the Moderated Meetings feature so I don’t need to set up much time in setting new (co-)hosts or moderators.
