I looked at it for a few minutes and it seems like it is mostly focused on there being a single presenter at a time, and then an audience for them.

In order to better replicate the benefits from meetups and conferences in real life, I think being able to allow users to more organically interact with each other sounds like a nice feature to work on.

Is there anything like this, or anything planned like this?

Hey, I'm part of the team at Venu! Initially we only supported the single streamer. Recently, however, we introduced support to have multiple people share their screen and present at one time (as long as they're invited as organizers for the meetup). We're in the process of updating the verbiage on the site to better reflect some of the updates we've made in the past few months!

Eventually we have plans to introduce breakout sessions or another way for viewers to be able to communicate more privately.

That sounds pretty cool. It definitely seems like a lot of work was already put into it, but would look forward to that too. Nice work!

I’d love a special or grouping aspect so that you can limit or focus conversations.

I’ve been in a VR hangout and one person was monopolizing the conversation. Walking away is a very natural signal and allows for a new side conversation to form.

It doesn’t have to be VR of course, but some kind of break out session while the main content continues.

I'm actually building that: https://www.calla.chat

I'll eventually add VR support, but for now I'm working on this 2D version to focus on just the conversation aspect.

This is awesome, doppler effect had me giddy
