Note that jit.si is only encrypted in the sense that Skype is encrypted, aka transport stream encrypted. The server needs access to the decrypted video stream so that it can do split screen. See this thread for details: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/issues/409

I personally use jitsi because it is FLOSS software and it's less likely to send conversation contents to the NSA or other dragnet surveillance entities. But it's not end to end encrypted.

Aha, I did not know that! On the plus side, you could set up your own server, having the guarantee.
