    I guess only internals know. It could be the case that jitsi may be used across institutions and with companies and matrix for internal stuff. An external shareholder wouldn’t need to create a matrix account just to talk to you.

      That’s a really good point. I have forgotten whether there are anonymous accounts in Matrix for rooms, but even if so it wouldn’t be the same as scheduling a meeting and sending a specific meeting link a-la Zoom.

      Yeah, this is the reason.

        I’m not 100% sure. The “new” element call does not need an existing matrix account. But the people who decide upon the software aren’t always up to date or maybe element call will change

        • Ah. Also, such a large organization probably doesn’t want to bet the farm on a relatively new and unproven feature.

          I’m guessing they have some minimum standards for age and stability.

            That’s also a good question. I wouldn’t consider matrix too new or unstable. Also, there are too many huge and important stakeholders in matrix. Matrix won’t go away in the next years.
