    @jdaviescoates yeah same. For me it’s mostly because I’m cheap. If I can avoid paying for a VPS I want to try. Everything I run now (except for my BBB backend) is on my home server

    @atrilahiji heh, fair enough. Like lots of people I don't have good enough internet at home to be able to do that πŸ™‚

    I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

      Version 2.3 just released
      https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/releases/tag/v2.3.0

      But the documentation is not yet up to date, especially about the installation which is now possible on Ubuntu 18.04 and about the improvements and new features.

                      @doodlemania2 where are the server instances located? I only have instances in germany. So no experience with other countries πŸ™‚
                      If you need a nice default presentation which explains the BBB-UI go to Presentation_Slides -> BBB-default-slides_en.pdf https://cloud.ebbba.org/s/Q2i9FqZaPdjQKmM

                        @luckow I have one in Southern California and another in Dallas, TX. Everything except presentations work (screen sharing, polls, chat, voice/video, presence, CC, etc all good). Will figure out presentations in a day or so.

                        DM me if you wanna give it a spin.

                          Did you use ansible? I just fixed a permission issue with bbb-web and bbb-html5 which blocked presentation parsing.

                          Like my work? Consider donating a drink. Cheers!

                              Any updates on a cloudron deploy-able package? I'd pay a separate fee for this app on a separate server, no questions asked.

                                        @brutalbirdie said in BigBlueButton - web conferencing system for on-line learning:

                                        @jdaviescoates but its bad, really bad!
                                        I maintain the official Ansible role for BBB and stay in close contact to at least 25 Admins from universities in Germany.
                                        They basically uniformly agreed that the Hetzner BBB app is unusable for for any real work with BBB.

                                        The Ansible Role:

                                        Darn it. Was really hoping for a major win.

                                        @privsec use the ansible role and you have a major win.

                                        I currently maintain multiple BBB clusters, Load-Balancers and Turn servers all via ansible and my work time for that is pretty much zero thanks to ansible.

                                        Like my work? Consider donating a drink. Cheers!
