@doublemalt @mitschabaude @__tosh Greetings Jam peeps,
Do you have any documentation available to build this on top of IPFS?
If not, I’ll start banging away at it.
Any help I’d be greatful. Thank you!!
@mitschabaude @__tosh @doublemalt Would seem apropos. Feel free to contact me through my profile e.mail to arrange a time.
Love the concept of creating an open source version of a product that is about to be copied by everyone.
Also, impressed how well it works on my browsers, great stuff
@peterbuch thanks for giving Jam a try! I'm also excited about the cambrian explosion of audio spaces

Zoom fatigue is real
Great idea & love the name:) It's awesome that you directly open-sourced it, I can also see this running as a successful one-click service in the future.
@toshiyori thanks a lot, great to see you here! we'll definitely work on making hosting/deploying super smooth even if you just briefly want to spin a Jam up for a special occasion
Really cool take on the space. Enabling Android Users to finally jump on the platform is great and will def. put some pressure on the CH team to deliver faster.
Love that it's open source - enables other people to experiment with the medium :)
Love the initiative @__tosh ❤️
Hope it helps sprout many hosted versions out in the wild 🍄
@jmarovt ty, can't wait to see various hosted Jams. ping me when you see 🐜 StarCraft and 🧛🏽 vampire-goth Jams :))
It always makes me happy when there's open source communication tools available. I'm a big advocate for being able to self-host and trust in the tools you use. Do you have plans to make self-hosting a one-click thing, so that also non-DevOps-sophisticated users can run their own private instance without having to learn server administration?
@msch great question & I share your enthusiasm, we do plan to make self-hosting as convenient as possible (one-click)!
@vladgozman makes me think, perhaps we should do a micro confiture conference w/ open source reicpies :))
hosted on Jam of course
Have been using this for a bit and I'm just amazed at how completely frictionless it is, no app required, no plug-ins, no pre-release browser-features or running on iOS only, no invites and no phone number verifications, no tracking and no basic/premium upsells—none of that.
It literally is just one click and you are live.
Not even an account is needed. This has to be one of the quickest ways to jump on an ad-hoc call with someone I've seen. No meet-up calendar invite, no Zoom-client download.
Why did it take the Clubhouse hype for this to suddenly appear and be used widely?
Really curious to see where it goes and if it can withstand the upcoming traffic.
@mittermayr appreciate the comment!
Can totally relate, feels a bit anachronistic that it took until today for audio spaces to arrive but I'm glad they did :))
This is pretty cool & very timely. I actually discovered it by searching on duckduckgo and thought it was posted "7m" - 7months ago, lol.
Where can I see the code?
@msch we might mirror to GitHub going forward, we were just more familiar with GitLab and GitLab CI and like that it also is available as open source
Awesome idea and really impressive you launched Jam in less than 2 weeks. Interested to see how events / conferences will use something like this to connect to the audience.
@fstanev thanks a lot! same here, super excited about that, especially as participant, I want to see more micro conferences and barcamps in audio spaces, can't wait :))
Love the "all fields are optional" design! Any plans to for (public) room discovery?
@begroe ty :)) yes, discovery is on top of our minds, stay tuned! thanks for taking a look, great to see u
Really sweet app! @DoubleMalt got me to try it a few days ago and it was so easy to jump in. No installation necessary – it just works!
@rrhoover can't wait to see the first hosted versions in the wild but we'll make that (+ customization) easier going fwd as well :))
