P2P voice chat with push-to-talk (for gaming)?

Peer-to-peer as it's easier to get an app over getting a server. Must be libre software and E2EE too, obviously.

Mumble! You can host your own mumble server, I used to it for privacy over Discord. Getting people to use it is another challenge.
- How is this peer-to-peer?
  
  If you host the server it is. Which is really easy. Then you can do stuff to add security like adding an IP whitelist perhaps along with other things.

Available only for desktop users for now, the new Push-to-talk feature offers a new effortless way to communicate: simply press a button for hands-free, instant, and convenient audio messaging. It’s like in the olden days of gaming when gamers would key bind the Push to talk feature to be able to talk when necessary.

So jami all the way, 🙂

But I also think Mumble is the better solution, but of course not p2p.

  Thank you!
  
  Probably not, but you can likely improvise by binding the audio mute to a button in your OS.
You can spin up your own mumble server. It's not that hard, and then once you have that running, you just tell your friends to download the mobile client and boom. You're done
- This does not spread privacy beyond them.
