Are there FOSS alternatives to Roll20?
I did a little googling and spotted Foundry Virtual Tabletop, but I haven’t been able to explore many alternatives yet. Which ones are good?

Foundry is outstanding. My groups moved to it after being frustrated with Fantasy Grounds and Roll20. Only parts of it are open-source, but I don’t mind in this case. It can be self-hosted, only one copy is needed, the price is reasonable, and the money goes to a small team of independent developers rather than a big corp.
(My one notable criticism of Foundry is that their official support community is on Discord, which I won’t use. This hasn’t kept me from using the software, though. There are plenty of other users out there, so it’s pretty easy to find information when I need it.)
We use Mumble for voice chat. Open-source, lightweight, cross-platform, low latency, good noise filtering (RNNoise), great sound quality. You can self-host, or pay for a super-cheap hosted server.
