#Sonobus for p2p backup voice chat

As we have just seen, discord is the backbone of the entire project, literally nothing works without it.

Can I suggest that Sonobus is used as a backup. It is p2p so it can’t break, and (iirc) it doesn’t need port forwards, so collab partners can just use the phone app .etc in a password locked session.

It is however missing encryption and echo cancellation, which may be a dealbreaker for this big of a project.

Just a suggestion.

Sonobus is audio only

Mods start a 3cx server xDx

#

But actually, not to be that guy but a project of this size shouldn’t be relying on other companies with software that can go down even if they have gone 30 days without downtime

everyone uses discord what are you even saying

#

do you expect vtubers to use some random server

#

on some random app

#

thats like 20 years old

I’d expect someone to have made an alternative that is self hosted

Can’t have downtime if you’re the one hosting it

#

Well, if you do have downtime it’d be your own fault

and you expect the 10 15 vtuber to use the said app?

#

like on idea it seems smart but when you think about it more than 2 minutes you realise it doesnt seem possible

Yeah pretty much, sonobus is easy to use

If these vtubers are willing to install vtube studio and figure out how to use toggles and join rooms together etc etc then installing sonobus, setting an input and output and joining the room and talking is not rocket science, they’ve got iOS and android apps + the thing will list rooms AND allow you to join via IP if the room server is down. I’m suggesting it as a backup system so it’s not like everyone needs to have it installed, it’s just be an “emergency” system

most vtubers are tech Illiterate if you are really expecting them to do it then im guessing you dont watch many vtubers

Again, this is easier than vtube studio

olive sage
#

its not about being easier, they HAVE to use vtube studio they dont have another choice

#

Yeah, but if they can figure that out they can figure out “select microphone select speakers join room enter password speak”

#

Even if, if it’s as a backup system Vedal would be there to walk them through it too
