Ah, I missed this thread.  As as said here:

https://ml.ninux.org/pipermail/battlemesh/2020-April/012024.html

I tried Bigbluebutton and it is indeed very robust, even with many people
and with people with bad connection.  It is not as intuitive as Jitsi Meet
and not as "fun", but in my experience it worked a bit better.

Also, about the "remote conference" use-case, apparently some people
developed such a system based on BigBlueButton.  Here are the links, I did
not try any of it:
