Duo

There's this new program called VideoMonkey. Works on phones and PCs, not macs yet though. It's still in beta but it's reallllly cool.

Discord, Teamspeak, Mumble

qTox

There is none.
You people seem to forget the #1 feature of Skype, EVERYONE USES IT ALREADY.
>j-just download and install Mumble so the NSA can't listen in on us
Fucking morons have no idea how stupid you look.

>"I haven't been able to contact you ever since you deleted your Facebook, how come you're not online on Skype or Viber anymore?"
>Yeah, I don't use them anymore; they have privacy issues.
>"Where can I contact you then?"
>Try _____________.

>>56294764
irc + mumble is all you need.

Dumb shit, if you're using it to 1 on 1 someone (say a friend) who is willing and capable of installing something other than skype, then using an alternative is perfectly acceptable. Stop forcing your little opinions on everyone else.

>Why would I want to use __________? It looks like a weird Skype clone with a UI from the 90s. Why can't we just use Skype?
>I CAN'T LET THE NSA SEE MY DRAWN CHILD PORNOGRAPHY STASH OK!?

so discord?

How do the guys who run discord make their money
hmmm

Discord
Doesn't do video but who the fuck really needs that.

BBM has video and call. But you'll need phones/tablets for that. Also it's not freedom.

>>56294764
there is no skype alternative if you are looking for an IM with video calls, because the most important factor of IM is its popularity. Also skype nowadays performs a lot better than it used to, the only people who would want a skype alternative are linux users because their skype client is still shit
