I've been looking for an alternative as well. My gaming friends always use Skype when we play together. We started a million years ago when Skype was huge and everyone had it and since it kept working, we kept it around.
We tried a lot of stuff, but nothing just works the way Skype always did. Why did MS have to be bitches and get rid of it.
Mumble has a very small footprint and exceptional voice quality. It's intended to use while gaming as well.
Looks good, but video chat is a must have. We like to give each other the middle finger often.
I've been using jitsi meet for video calls for years now, that should work just fine.
Thanks, I'll look into it. It doesn't seem that easy but might be an option
Yeah I remember it was not that easy to set up, but it's gotten a lot easier recently. I switched from the native to the docker install last year and was surprised to have it all back up and running in an afternoon...
