For over 10 years I've been running a semi-public Mumble server. It's pretty much zero effort, low CPU and low bandwidth usage.

These days mainly just as a backup for when Discord lags, which over the past few weeks has been often. It's so nice to have a very good, open source, self-hosted, encrypted communications app as an alternative to yet another Electron app.

That also makes the server requirements very simple. I have a tiny VM that can handle a lot of users.

[edit] removed e2e, the clients are not using pfs yet.

It's not end-to-end encrypted?

It's only encrypted going to server, I'm quite certain of it.

I stand corrected. [1] I will see if I can find a way to replace a voice stream. Perhaps I am thinking of a forum thread about PFS.

Even PFS doesn't really work well with Mumble due to the fact that most clients are using Qt4.
