It's not that Skype is bad software, it's that the normed we want to chat with are content with Skype, and don't want to switch. Also pic related.

Because backdoored, deprecated, botnet bloat with terrible font rendering and UI design. Something something suicide watch. Watches are technology.

multi device is a must and one of the most important features to a chat client, but that relies on a man in the middle to keep the chat logs and feed messages to clients that don't have them. Tox can't because it's built on being peer to peer. Though having a man in the middle wouldn't hurt anything since it's encrypted anyways, you could just share your private key locally between any devices you're using.

I think OP's just a dumbass and means that audio/video calls don't work over 3/4g and you have to be connected to wifi? I hope that's what he means
