Some other ideas from tickets:

Planned/In progress

• Group chat. Yeah we know it's missing but it's currently in progress (https://git.jami.net/groups/savoirfairelinux/-/epics/2)
• Syncing history (linked to group chat support)
• Read notifications (already available on some platforms)
• Ability to start a call without the camera (https://git.jami.net/savoirfairelinux/ring-project/issues/428)

Wanted but not planned

• A web interface. Because installing an app can be boring. Joining a conference via a link can be cool. For now, nobody is working on it.
• Push to talk, voice detection
