I'm looking for something that can do chat, video calling with support for guess links and chats. I need it to work in the browser so I can send people a link to a chat session. Bonus if it has a simple mobile app and calendar integration.

Anyone know of something that isn't Nextcloud Chat?

Jitsi is close but it purely does video calling.

Not sure what you mean by that. Turn off the camera and you've got an audio chat.

I want something that is a chat where guests can join a group with a link.

That's exactly how Jitsi works.

Signal is not self hosted but they also support videoconference style calls.

Jitsi is closer to Zoom than anything else

I'm looking for the chat plus the ability to start a call

I see. What about Matrix?
