    Ohhh, hello, that sounds really, really great. And you also run your own ‘Jamulus’ server. You don’t do that if you don’t enjoy these things. 😃 ;-) Let me tell you what this is all about.

    We’re already planning a regular, German-language (doesn’t matter if you don’t speak German) ‘Vivaldi Live Talk’ online event for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/14626610 under here

    In the initial phase, there will be several events at not too long intervals. Initially there will be an open discussion, which of course will not be recorded, about everything to do with the Vivaldi browser, including planned and prepared topics. These events may last a little longer, there should be room for topics that arise during the event.

    There should be a cultural programme according to the motto Vivaldi users delight Vivaldi users and interested parties. This could include all kinds of activities, such as slide shows with photos taken by the users themselves, photos of pictures they have painted, sculptures and artefacts. Literature Readings of your own texts or recitations by known and unknown authors, whatever you particularly like. And music, of course. Self-played, of course also cover versions, preferably live, but recordings are also nice if they are homemade.

    I don’t know if you’ve ever experienced ‘Privacy Week Vienna’.

      Interesting! Unfortunately you’re too far away for a live session with me, I’m in the US. The singer for my Oktoberfest band lives in Munich, and we tested this already. There’s just too much latency to play together live across the globe.

      Side note, Jitsi Meet is the tool I use for video though. Jitsi video with Jamulus audio and you’ve got an impressive working online solution for live music. Bandwidth isn’t a huge factor since Jamulus reguires very little bandwidth per channel (and the video doesn’t really matter as much). But Latency matters a LOT, and distance from the server has a massive impact on that.

      I wish you luck in your endeavor though; I hope it works out for ya!
