What's a good alternative to Microsoft Teams?
That depends on how you use it.
Pretty much all functions can be replaced by a combination of ActivityPub services and NextCloud.
Or you could use Slack.
I still fail to see the value of ActivityPub besides Lemmy/mastodon.
matrix and xmpp make more sense cause they're meant for messaging and I'd imagine be better able to do video calls
Is XMPP on activity pub??
no, where did you get that from?
Sorry misinterpreted the context
For what teams focuses on, matrix. Has channels, big voice calls, etc. missing the sheer set of plugins teams has.
Xmpp/jabber is also good but since it started as a classic instant messaging protocol it's facilities for persistent storage and groups is a bit wonky.
For friend groups you're better off with signal as it has enough administration tools to manage a small group and almost no overhead for the people you want to join you (although they will whine and drag their feet like petulant children because you made them download an app).
VoIP.im and Jami is where I'm going. I hope it's a good combo.
