Before everyone jumps to conclusions
So far, @nebulon has been trying to make coturn to be part of the app itself. This is indeed quite hard.So, I think what this means is that we have to integrate the turn server into the platform code base itself. So, it would become an addon/service just like the databases and other things. And then nextcloud, jitsi, kopano meet etc can just use this coturn service. Integrating coturn into cloudron is not very hard but will require a new release of Cloudron.

That'd be totally awesome!
Which I guess is what we've come to expect from Cloudron
It also sounds like having a turn server service/ addon that can be used by nextcloud talk/ jitsi meet/ kopano meet etc, would be a much better solution anyway, so I'm actually really glad that making it part of the app is hard!

LDAP seems to be supported out of the box in dockerized Jitsi Meet!

Sounds like end to end encryption coming to jitsi soon (although also sounds like perhaps only for chromium/ chrome):

Any news on a Jitsi app on Cloudron?
The Privacy Authority of The Netherlands published a overview of video-call apps (https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/nl/nieuws/keuzehulp-privacy-bij-videobel-apps) and here (https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/sites/default/files/atoms/files/keuzehulp_privacy_videobellen.pdf) you see that it looks like Jitsi is the best choice!

No major news on this so far, unfortunately it is quite the beast to package with a lot of undocumented configuration options, even their own debian packaging scripts are a hit and miss in our experience. Surely it would be good to have and hopefully eventually we will get there.

I'm using Kopano and I don't find it to be as reliable for establishing connections as the public Jitsi server. I would far prefer to use my own machine though.
Is this being actively worked on? Can I help at all, say by testing?
Would it help if there was a small bounty for getting it working (if that is appropriate in this community)?

We had postponed this a bit because Jitsi support on Firefox was spotty but that seems to be sorted out now - https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/4758 . (Unrelated, but of course, with all the layoffs at mozilla, I bet it's going to regress more).
-
Is there any update on this?
The COVID-19 pandemic is (almost everywhere) increasing and measures for working from home are again and/or still there. The public Jitsi service is overloaded so it's very very welcome after all these months to have a Cloudron version of Jitsi-server.
