libdatachannel[0] is exciting me the most for 'low footprint'. str0m[1] is especially exciting, but you have to be in a device/ecosystem that allows rust.

With WebRTC I can connect clients with varying support of H264, VP8, VP9, AV1, Opus, ulaw and alaw. WebRTC has plenty of flaws, but 'lack of negotiation' is one of them.

Oh, this looks great! Also thank you for Pion :)

Edit: Woah, I somehow completely missed that Pion does WebRTC media too (I've only seen it in a data channel project I've toyed around with in the past). Definitely add that to my list above, and I can somewhat vouch for it, it's cool!

Thank you so much for using it. I feel so honored(and surprised) that people use it. I totally stumbled into a successful project.

If I ever can be helpful with your projects reach out!
