This is actually a good thing.

You can use an external application. Inconvenient? Sure, but worth it for e2ee.

Bonus: Unlike your application Jitsi is foss and does not require a centralized account.

I think if I were in your shoes right now I might use a peer to peer video conferencing application that relies on tried and true p2p e2ee (or build one, it's not hard).

Insertable streams are new, and less proven.

An honest question, do you visit sites served by Cloudflare? Is point-to-point encryption okay for your use cases there, or do you have security concerns that require e2ee for your communications?

I would actually be fine even with raw http for said sites.
