Actually Skype is pretty horrible on linux, it uses tons of CPU, crashes a lot and lacks tons of features compared to windows. Also I've heard bad things about the OSX version.
- StavrosK 16y agoNot to mention the iPhone/Android clients. It's horrible on Linux, sending a few messages will cause it to hang and consume 100% CPU until you shut it down, with the only indication that it hung being the CPU usage.
- nyud 16y agoI've actually had a pretty decent experience with Skype on Linux, even with my slow Eee PC. Granted, I don't use video a ton, but it seems to hold up fine when I do. That said, it is certainly missing a lot of the features included in the Windows and Mac versions. In addition, the Android version lacks video, and is a bit clunky, but I have not had problems with its performance.
