Open-source communication tools

Open-source communication tools are software programs that allow people to communicate, collaborate, and share information, and their source code is publicly available. This means anyone can inspect, modify, or enhance the software. Examples include messaging apps, video conferencing tools, and collaborative workspace platforms. Because they are open-source, these tools often prioritize user privacy and security, and they can be freely used or altered to suit specific needs. Popular open-source communication tools include Signal for messaging and Jitsi for video calls, promoting an alternative to proprietary software that may have privacy concerns.
