My only hangup with jitsi is the design choice (that zoom used to have) to drop new attendees with mic and camera default to open as the default. I know it is now possible to change this on a per meeting level, but the fact that sometimes it isn't me setting up the meeting made me go with Google meet for the time being. This was in the context of the User Group Wiki Movement Brazil (WMB) periodical meetings.
Google gave us, WMB, a free non-profit subscription to all of gsuite and it allows us meetings of up to 25 people. Last I checked the free tier without the non-profit program is up to 10 people per meeting. Jitsi is superior to zoom in my view, not only the open source aspect is important but zoom does not have a browser based solution that I'm aware of. And a few months ago there was a serious vulnerability disclosed for the zoom local client that kept its foothold even *after* the user chose to uninstall the zoom client. For now my recommendations are meet, better than jitsi, better than zoom.
