    this definitely makes sense in the OSS community, but i feel like someone should’ve already done it as a semi pet project already. I know i would’ve done it.

    Pet project, yes; production-ready, that’s a whole 'nother story.

    Ultimately some things are too complex to deliver out on tem “just because”. Such as web browsers, hence ATM there only exist about 2.

      to be fair, linux was also a pet project, until it wasn’t. I’m not expecting people to drop zoom2 electric boogaloo over this or anything.

      web browsers i could see, because they removeding suck, though there are a few alt browser projects currently going on, so there is that.

      but something like VOIP and video sharing i would imagine is probably going to be magnitudes easier than something like a web browser.
