Please no zoom. It's been all over the news... We use BigBlueButton for teaching now, I had a successful meeting with more than 180 participants (no camera, no mike for the participants). A session with 12 parallel video streams also worked fined. The server has a 1Gbit/s connection, I have a simple DSL connection.
