Try Telegram, Linphone or a WebRTC service. Skype is truly bad on linux but Discord served me and my friends well so, check your developer's internet connection

  Internet connection doesnt affect her microphone.

    Then she should get a better mic. I'd no issues with mics over the last decade I've been using linux on the desktop.

      And this response is why linux on the desktop is a fucking fantasy.

        Either you're a ignorant moron or you're a dumb astroturfer. Choose one.

    But a lousy internet connection will certainly make VOIP unreliable. I would ditto the recomendation to try SIP-based or web-based VOIP. I've never had an issue on Linux. Haven't used Skype, Discord, or Slack, so can't comment there.

      Maybe you misunderstood. The problem isnt that the quality is poor. The problem is that the client application fails to recognise microphone input. The calls are fine if it works, but when it doesn't its a one way call. Again: this whole thread is why linux on desktop is a fucking fantasy. Any problem and the mere idea that its because of unreliable software is avoided like a hooker with an eye patch, lest people have to recognise "yeah this shit just doesn't work well"
