Hi ports@
Any reccomendations of conference / social group party chat server software ?

As much more of the world goes into lock down & social distancing, ie
not meeting friends at the pub / restuarant etc on Saturday night
etc, BBC has shown some social groups have arranged a matrix of 10
to 20 faces from cameras on each of 10 to 20 screen, so groups can
chat virtualy, & drink localy @ home.

That needs servers. Doubtless there are big commercial firms offering,
but if some of us think it may be interesting adding such software
to our FreeBSD servers for use by friends, Any reccomendations what
to add from ports/ ?

Might it all be in https://www.freebsd.org/ports/multimedia.html
or more likely scattered ? Keywords to search with ?

What about client apps on android, apple & MS 
('cos most friends are non tech & dont run BSD or Linux PCs etc)

What about bandwidth per user, dont want to impact server hosts.

If most of this has been asked before, an URL to a FAQ would be fine thanks.

Cheers
