The question may be a bit silly, but what is the difference of subscribing to Stream and Join a Session it?
Thank you.

You may be connected to a Session without sending or receiving any media at all. You first connect to a session and then publish/subscribe streams.

So the flow is as follows?
- Create session or Join on the session

- Subscribe stream

from all users?

You create a Session in OpenVidu Server through REST API or Java/Node SDK.
You create tokens for that session though REST API or Java/Node SDK
You join users to the session by consuming those tokens in your clients (method Session.connect in openvidu-browser library).

This is all explained in OpenVidu docs: https://openvidu.io/docs/cheatsheet/join-session/
