Great summary on the drawbacks of a mesh network https://bloggeek.me/webrtc-p2p-mesh/

Although technically this is true, mesh has benefits regarding resilience.

A brainstorming about alternative ways besides SFU and MCU would be nice. Maybe different topologies or video/audio encoding streamlining using WASM? Or just as simple solutions as providing still images for inactive users?

The choice should probably be left to the user and an option added to use a SFU instead of mesh. In certain scenarios, like online education, this is probably without alternatives.

A discussion about possible SFU solutions can be found here: holtwick/peer2school#66
