Trisquel is a fully free computer operating system while Jami is a complete cross platform communication app. Following the release of the latest OS version 9 codenamed Etiona, and the latest version of the communication app codenamed Together, now I want to explain my experiments with Jami by using my laptop and phone altogether. The results are it works with calls, for both usual audio and also video; can do two ways of share screen; text chats and file sharing also works, with some important notes. Thanks to Trisquel Developers, now using Jami is much more easier than ever. Now let's go chatting!

GNU Jami is the new name of GNU Ring (ring.cx if you remember), the decentralized instant messaging from The GNU Project. Do you know, Jami is one among several FSF's High Priority Projects under the section Real-time Voice & Video Conferencing free software? And upon the name change, Jami got a lot of improvements including distros supports including Trisquel. This article explains how to install GNU Jami on Ubuntu and Trisquel for beginners. Happy conferencing!
