I run a completely free service https://firemeet.io Though I think gather's UX is actually very friendly to non-technical people!

I've engineered it to be very inexpensive to run. I work on high efficiency video codecs, so one benefit is that I get to sometimes test my codec's and get real user feedback.

I personally don't find virtual stuff fun, the pandemic is really sad, so wanted to make something available for public use. :)
