Bloom Meeting on Linux
Build from the open source or run the desktop build on Linux — same pay-once license, no telemetry.
Setup on Linux
Download the installer
Download the latest Bloom Meeting installer from the GitHub Releases page (https://github.com/bensblueprints/bloommeeting/releases) — or build it yourself from the MIT source.
Install
Run the installer — one click, no terminal, no account to create.
Run it locally
Bloom Meeting runs 100% on your machine — no account, no telemetry, and it keeps working with the Wi-Fi off.
What works offline: everything. Bloom Meeting is a desktop app — once it's installed, no feature needs a connection to us.
Bloom Meeting on Linux — honest answers
Do my guests have to install anything?
No. Guests open a browser link — up to 4 guests plus the host. Only the host runs the desktop app.
What happens if the connection is bad during the call?
Nothing, to the recording. The live call only carries the conversation — each participant records locally on their own machine, so the tracks are studio quality even if the call stutters.
