Anyone have any input on the latest beta release from Microsoft for Linux? Skype and Microsoft aren't things that personally interest me very much but I get asked about both a *lot* so unfortunately I need to keep up with them both. Initial reports seem to be that predictably the new beta Linux Skype sucks just as much as the old alpha Linux Skype: my initial tests on an Ubuntu 16.04 VM have Skype consistently managing to bring down the entire VM within seconds of signing in to the application, which is quite an achievement... Even the webapp version of Skype sucks universally across all platforms. I really wouldn't care if it wasn't for the awkward fact that the tiny issue of Skype running nicely on Linux is the last remaining deal breaker for several clients switching completely. Every now and then MS eventually drop an "upgrade" and I get my hopes up for a test. Queue disappointment :/ Cheers -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG https://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
