- [Jitsi Meet](https://meet.linux.ucla.edu): Video conferencing platform

- [Mumble](mumble://linux.ucla.edu?title=LUG%20Mumble%20Server&version=1.2.0): Voice chat platform

- [XMPP](https://xmpp.link/#main@room.linux.ucla.edu): Instant messaging platform, bridged with our Discord chat. Ask an officer for a `linux.ucla.edu` account.

- [SuperTuxKart](https://supertuxkart.net): Racing video game server; connect to `linux.ucla.edu`

- [Invidious](https://yt.linux.ucla.edu/): Privacy-respecting YouTube frontend with no ads

- [Gitea](https://git.linux.ucla.edu): Git code forge; ask an officer for an account

- [Arch Linux Mirror](https://arch.linux.ucla.edu/): Tier 2 mirror which syncs twice a day from [Leaseweb](https://mirror.sfo12.us.leaseweb.net/archlinux/). Add the line `Server = https://arch.linux.ucla.edu/$repo/os/$arch` to your `/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist` file.

- [SearXNG](https://searx.linux.ucla.edu/): Search engine aggregator with no tracking or ads

- **Backups**: our NAS automatically backs up the contents of our members' VMs three times a week.

## Planned

- **More Mirrors**: [EndeavourOS](https://github.com/endeavouros-team/mirrors?tab=readme-ov-file) (only one US mirror!), [Artix](https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/Mirrors) (normal), [CRAN](https://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html).

- [Minetest](https://www.minetest.net/): Like Minecraft, but free and open source.
