Jami，让你对其工作原理和你能从中获取的内容有更深入的理解。 + +不管你是为了联系亲爱的人，还是为了职业需求与同事/团队沟通，一个安全的通讯平台都是大家的需求。[Jami][1] 就是其中一款通讯平台，利用**分布式网络**来实现视频通话、文件分享、聊天等功能全都不经过服务器。 + +这个工具完全免费且开源，具有多样的功能。 + +然而，它的表现如何呢？用户体验会好么？使用体验能像其他已有的专有平台那么流畅么？或者，你能在手机上使用吗？ + +在这篇文章里，我们将仔细研究 Jami。我们试用了一下以助你作出更明智的决定。 + +### Jami 的特性 + +![][2] + +对很多用户来说，体验的好坏取决于功能的全面性。 + +所以，在深入研究 Jami 之前，让我概述一下，你可以期待从它得到什么样的功能： + + * 即时发送消息 + * 群聊 + * 视频会议 + * 音频通话 + * 音频和视频信息 + * 屏幕共享 + * 文件分享 + * 增强功能的扩展 + * 作为 SIP（会话启动协议）客户端 + +看起来，Jami 是一款在考虑分布式解决方案时值得考虑的全能选项。 + +听上去挺刺激的，对吧？ + +那我们现在就来细看一下，看看它是如何工作的，以及我们能从中获得什么。 + +### 使用 Jami 的入门步骤 + +![在 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 上通过 deb 包安装 Jami][3] + +在你的系统上安装 Jami 是相当简单的。 + +你可以直接从它的网站下载最新的官方版本，或者直接在你的包管理器中（对于 Linux）搜索它。 + +它可以跨平台使用，包括：Linux、Windows、macOS、安卓和 iOS。 + +对于安卓用户，你可以在 Play Store 或 F-Droid 中安装。至本文撰写之时，Jami 支持所有最新和最棒的操作系统版本，所以，从这个层面上看，它的维护工作做得相当好。 + +在安装完成之后，就开始了注册过程。不像其他一些平台，它并不需要任何私人信息，只需要你创建一个你喜欢的独特用户名。 + +完成之后，你只需要把这个用户名与其他用户分享，就可以开始对话了。你也可以展现出 QR 码让其他人连接你。就是这么简单。 + +![][4] + +在注册时，你可以选择加密你的帐户，以在设备上保护它，并自定义显示名。 + +### 使用 Jami 作为通讯平台 + +![][5] + +使用这类平台时，我们的首要关心点通常是发送 / 接收消息的响应速度，以及语音 / 视频通话的质量。 + +好消息是：**使用体验快捷顺畅**。不管你是要发送一个视频信息，进行一个音频通话，还是发送文本，Jami 都像你想象的一样响应灵敏。 + +当我们谈及 **用户界面**，每个人的看法可能都会不同。我发现它的用户界面简明扼要，干净利落。 + +![][6] + +然而，当你调窄应用窗口的宽度时，事情可能会有所不同。它失去了适应较小尺寸的能力，忽视了重要的元素，甚至难以顺畅地访问设置，这降低了使用体验。 + +![][7] + +不要误会，你仍可以正常导航至所有选项。然而，体验感会显得有些生硬。 + +当把 Jami 的窗口缩小时，我点击了“设置Settings”，结果直接进入了“账户管理Manage Account”选项，而没有给我任何下拉菜单，也没有为我打开“账户Accounts”/“一般General”或“音频/视频Audio/Video”部分。 + +假设我想要进入“音频/视频”设置，我就会进入账户设置。接下来，我需要再次导航到其他设置。这并不是一个让人感到方便的体验。 + +如果你不会经常调小 Jami 的窗口，或者你更喜欢大一点的窗口，那么你应该不会遇到此类问题。总结一下，如果你希望所有东西都有现代化的设计风格，那它可能会有些失望。 + +当你第一次发送/接收文本或通话时，会被视作一次邀请。一旦你接受了邀请，用户就会出现在你的会话列表中。 + +发送短信，添加新朋友的体验是无缝连接的，我没有遇到任何问题。 + +![][8] + +> 📋 在撰写本文时进行的最新版本测试中，我无法关闭捐款消息。我答复的同事也遇到这个问题。 + +在信息中，你会有标记“正在输入中”的提示，你也可以回复一个特定的消息，用一个表情符号做出反应，附加文件，或发送语音或者视频消息。 + +这些消息都可以被编辑和删除。 + +![][9] + +上面的对话截图是一个通过选择多个用户创建的群聊。 + +这样，当你创建这样的群聊时，一个新的邀请会被发送到用户那里，这是好的（不是强制他们加入群聊）。如果他们接受了邀请，他们就能加入你创建的群聊。 + +默认情况下，创建群组的设备将会默认承载群组内的任何音频 / 视频通话。 + +如果你连接的账户有多个设备，你可以选择你想要作为主机的那个设备。 + +通话体验有些不尽人意，具体来说，音频通话体验十分出色，音频清晰。 + +![][10] + +然而，视频通话的音频方面就有些令人失望。 + +当然了，用直连的方式，视频质量会严重依赖网络连接，然而，和网络连接相比，我们得到的质量并没有那么好。（主机是我，网速是 200 Mbps）。 + +![][11] + +视频质量可能是由于优化不佳或网络不佳导致的，但是，双方的音频并不清晰，音量在整个通话中都在上下波动。 + +虽然我的一些同事能分享他们的屏幕，但是在带有 AMD Radeon 集成 GPU 的 Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 上，应用崩溃了。 + +![][12] + +默认情况下，你无法添加绿幕效果，这和一些专有的视频通话应用不同。然而，你可以安装扩展增加此类功能。 + +![][13] + +另外，为了增强你的体验，你可以调整通话设置，包括自动接听电话，将你的账户作为接入点，切换正在输入中的指示等。 + +### 总结 + +如果 Jami 能在现代化用户界面这方面投入更多努力，那么它应该能成为像微软 Teams、Slack 和 Zoom 这样的应用的热门选择。 + +当然了，因为 P2P 连接原因，视频质量可能不如其他专有选项那么稳定。但在音频通话、视频/音频信息、文字输入、文件发送等方面你应该不会有任何问题，同时享受私密的通讯体验。 + +总的来说，Jami 为你提供了所有基本的需求，在一个更快的体验上提供了基本的用户界面。 + +> **[探究 Jami][1]** + +它可能不能给你最好的用户体验，但是考虑到它在分布式网络连接、开源应用和隐私保护方面的优势，对于注重隐私的用户来说，它仍是个极好的选择。 + +*（题图：DA/26649e6b-a4b6-4591-a5c1-ecac982529a9）* +

publisher: " " -[#]: url: " " - -Jami: A Versatile Open-Source Distributed Communication App -====== - -Whether you want to connect to your loved ones or colleagues/team for professional requirements, everyone would like to use a secure communication platform to do that. - -[Jami][1] is one such communication platform that utilizes a **distributed network** to let you make video calls, share files, communicate via chat, and more. **Which means that there is no server at all between people**. - -It is an entirely free and open-source tool with versatile functionalities. - -But, how well does it work? Do you get a good user experience with it? Is it a seamless experience like some other proprietary platforms? Can you use it on your mobile? - -In this article, let us take a good look at Jami. We gave it a try to help you decide better. - -### Features of Jami - -![][2] - -For some users, it is the availability of features that make or break the experience. - -So, before we take an in-depth look at Jami, let me highlight what you can expect with it: - - * Instant messaging - * Group chats - * Video Conferences - * Audio calls - * Audio and video messages - * Screen sharing - * File sharing - * Extensions for enhanced functionalities - * Ability to use it as an SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) client - - - -With the feature-set on offer, Jami sounds like a versatile option to consider while being a distributed solution. - -Sounds exciting, right? - -Now, let us go through some details where we evaluate how it works, and what options we get with it. - -### Getting Started With Jami - -![Jami installation on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS via deb package][3] - -Installing Jami on your system is easy. - -You can either download the latest official package from its website or search for it in your package manager (for Linux). - -It is available cross-platform, including Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. - -For Android users, you can install it from the Play Store or F-Droid. Jami supports all the latest and greatest versions of operating systems at the time of writing this. So, it is actively maintained on that aspect. - -After the installation, there comes the sign up process. Unlike some other platforms, it does not need any personal information to get you up and running. - -All you have to do is create a unique username per your liking. Once done, you just need to share that username with other users to start communicating. You can also show the QR code for others to connect with you. It is that easy. - -![][4] - -At the time of signing up, you can choose to encrypt your account to keep it protected on the device and customize the display name. - -### Using Jami as a Communication Platform - -![][5] - -The first concern that we usually have with such platforms is the responsiveness of sending/receiving messages and the quality of voice/video calls. - -The good news is: **it is a fast experience**. Whether it is about sending a video message, making an audio call or, sending texts, Jami was as responsive as one would want it to be. - -When it comes to the **user interface** , it will be a subjective take. I found the UI straightforward and distraction-free. - -![][6] - -Having said that, things change when you reduce the window size of the app. It fails to adapt to a smaller area, and misses out on keeping important elements, and the downgrades experience of accessing the settings. - -![][7] - -Do not get me wrong, it looks like you can navigate to all the options well. However, the experience is clunky. - -When I clicked on "Settings" with Jami in a smaller area, it directly took to the "Manage Account" option, instead of giving me any dropdown menu or a way to access "Account" / "General" or "Audio/Video" sections. - -Suppose, I wanted to access Audio/Video settings, I get pulled to the Account settings. Next, I need to navigate my way back to find other settings. Not a convenient experience to have. - -If you do not use Jami by reducing the window size, and prefer it bigger than 850px or more, you should not encounter this issue. - -In a nutshell, if you are some who prefers a modern touch to everything for UI, it can be an underwhelming experience. - -When it is the first time you send/receive a text/call, it is treated as an invitation. Once you accept the invitation, the user will show up in your list of conversations. - -Texting and connecting with new friends is a seamless experience. I had no problems at all. - -![][8] - -📋 - -With the latest version tested at the time of writing this, I could not dismiss the donation message. It was the same for my colleagues I texted. - -You have typing indicators, you can reply to a specific message, react with an emoji, attach files, and send a voice or video message. - -The messages can be edited and deleted as well. - -![][9] - -The conversation in the screenshot above is a group chat (swarm) created by selecting multiple users. - -So, when you create such a group, a new set of invitations will be sent to the users, which is a good thing (instead of forcefully adding them to the group). If they accept the invitation, they will join the group chat you created. - -The device which creates the group hosts any audio/video calls made within the group by default. - -If you have multiple devices connected to the account, you can select the device you want to be the host. - -The calling experience was sub-par, meaning, the audio call experience was excellent with crisp audio. - -![][10] - -However, the video call was disappointing, on the audio-side. - -Sure, with a direct connection, the video quality heavily depends on the network connection. However, we still did not get the quality as we should with our connection (the host, me, with a 200 Mbps network). - -![][11] - -The video could be the result of bad optimization or poor network from the other side. But, the audio was not clear for both sides, with the volume going up and down throughout the call. - -While some of my colleagues were able to share their screen, the app crashed on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with AMD Radeon integrated GPU onboard. - -![][12] - -By default, you do not have any option to add a green screen effect, unlike some proprietary video calling apps. However, you can install extensions to add such abilities. - -![][13] - -Additionally, to enhance your experience, you can adjust the call settings with options like auto-answer calls, using your account as a rendezvous point, toggle typing indicators, and more. - -### Wrapping Up - -If Jami gives a little more effort to modernize its user interface, it could become a popular option over the likes of Microsoft Teams, Slack, or Zoom. - -Sure, the video quality may not be as consistent as other proprietary options because of the peer-to-peer connection. You should have no hiccups with audio calls, video/audio messages, texts, sending files, and more while enjoying a private communication experience. - -Overall, Jami provides you with all the essentials, with a basic user interface aimed for a faster experience. - -[Explore Jami][1] - -**It may not give you the "best" user experience, but considering its advantages for a distributed network connection, open-source app, and privacy, it should fit perfectly for a privacy-conscious user.** - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: https://itsfoss.com/jami/ - -作者：[Ankush Das][a] -选题：[lujun9972][b] -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) -校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[a]: https://itsfoss.com/author/ankush/ -[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 -[1]: https://jami.net/ -[2]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/Screenshot-from-2023-12-05-16-20-33.png -[3]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-install-ubuntu.png -[4]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-signup.png -[5]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-main-screen.png -[6]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-settings.png -[7]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-small-screen.png -[8]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-conversations-text.png -[9]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-conversation-with-file.png -[10]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-audio-call.png -[11]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-video-call.png -[12]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-calling.png -[13]: https://itsfoss.com/content/images/2023/12/jami-extensions.png
