A while back, after hours of frustration, I gave up on jitsi sip and am no 
longer 
trying to get it to work.

That is one reason I am looking for alternatives.  However, some courts are 
using 
zoom so its probably not as bad as the security folks make it out to be.

I was one of the original users of linphone and used it for years, but it 
became too 
buggy and linux support has been truncated.  So though I would love to use it 
(if for 
no other reason than its great address capability) I have sadly abandoned 
linphone.  
I went back to using video-less Twinkle several months ago and it works 
perfectly 
with diamondcard.us (sip). I use it constantly.
