JAKARTA - The social networking platform X is reportedly developing a new video conferencing feature, which seems to be rivaling Zoom, Google Meet, and other video conferencing platforms.

Found for the first time by TechCrunch, one of Chris Park's X employees in his post said that the company team was holding its first internal conference through the tool.

The meeting of the first X Conference with some of my great @X and @XDevelopers teammates. It's been a very strong alternative to Google Hangouts, Zoom, AWS Chime, and of course... Microsoft Teams, "wrote Chris.

Chris also noted that the team's early feedback was very strong, and they might work on features such as the ability to pin speakers and better notifications to show people who join or leave the meeting.

Then, Elon Musk in the post responded with a fire emoji, indicating that the X video conferencing feature seems to be really coming in the future.

On the other hand, an application researcher, who goes by the name @P4mui on the platform, also shows that users will be able to create new meetings directly from the iOS app, both instant and scheduled later, similar to other online conference tools.

However, there are no clearer details on when the feature will be launched or tested on X users. Let's wait for further information.
