Nice, this is similar to what I was wondering about - it looks like it's pretty limited in capability right now (looks like it only supports canvas2d at the moment: https://nxjs.n8.io/runtime/rendering/canvas), but in theory it would allow you to make a layer to convert WebGPU or WebGL games for Switch (ignoring the huge performance drop going from v8 / jit JS engines to QuickJS).
Jitsi dev here. We are currently revisiting this. It exists because in cases such as when Jitsi Meet is being embdeed there are pre-join pages provided externally by the "host" site. We will be limiting how this can be used going forward.
Is/will there be any discussion on how initial triage of potential security issues will be handled in the future?
It was disappointing to see the responses in the post. A curt "It's a feature" to a valid security concern & disclosure, and not replying to a request to publish.
Jitsi says "We encourage responsible disclosure for the sake of our users, so please reach out before posting in a public space.". But if no one bothers to reply, why bother to reach out to Jitsi in the first place?
https://jitsi.org/ says, literally in the hero image banner, "More secure" as the first thing you see. The handling of this raises some concerns about that. (If you don't want to be scrutinized as much about privacy & security stuff, I would recommend not advertising "more secure" as the first thing people see on the site)
But network effect doesn't have an impact here, does it? Matrix exists and would be a great fit for this initiative.
If someone is committed enough to help out but using Matrix (either directly from the web browser or installing the Element client) is too big a burden I'd question that original commitment.
I like Matrix but unfortunately it has major stability issues. The GrapheneOS project moved most of their chat over to Discord after their Matrix community got nuked twice. They still maintain a Matrix community which is bridged to their Discord instance, but most users are on the Discord side of the fence.
IMHO, Revolt is a better FOSS Discord alternative: https://revolt.chat/. Relatively young project, but they are unashamedly cloning the Discord user experience (even with the name). By default it uses infrastructure in Europe run by the project maintainers but can also be self hosted.
I work on that codebase (we forked it off to QuickJS-ng) and while daunting at first, it's somewhat easy to work with, with the right editor! Many of them choke on such a large file, alas.
While it being a very large file, it's sorted somewhat semantically, so it's easy to work on adding a new iterator method, for example, since they are all close to each other.
