The last time I tried to make video chat work with people, we dived between jitsi, facebook messenger, zoom... until something worked well enough. what are people using here now? Jitsi? Google Meet? Whatsapp? Facebook Messenger? Zoom? Skype? Facetime, somehow? The builtin thing in matrix that used to be jitsi but I think they updated it? Microsoft Teams? What?

Yes. They're quite reasonable, especially considering you don't even need an account. https://tosdr.org/en/service/2201

It's a Free Software product. They are owned by 8x8 which charges for its video solutions, but Jitsi is absolutely free and Free. https://www.8x8.com/products/plans-and-pricing

you don't even need an account.

That's sadly not true anymore for their own hosted service:

tl;dr: you need to login with a Google, Facebook or Github login to create a room
