What was the point of using Twilio's API if you were using WebRTC already? Wouldn't it have already worked without twilio?

I love the idea of the random mixing! I have the same thing happen where once I find a group I just stay there, even if I want to try meeting more people

Twilio's API offers an abstraction on top of WebRTC that handles the peer connections etc. So my interaction is more with Twilio's API than WebRTC directly.

Thanks! It's definitely a struggle of mine. It's more comfortable to stick with a group that you're already accepted into than go try to get accepted again.
