We can thank EdgeвЂ™sВ use of standards compliant web technologies for facilitating this, as thereвЂ™s nothing stopping (bar user agent string sniffing) from making Skype for Web calls using other modern webВ browsers. вЂњPlugin-free calling in Edge is the first step towards an interoperable, standards-based calling experience in Skype and Skype for Business, so that Skype users on any modern platform can communicate without the need for plugins or downloads,вЂќ say Microsoft of the change.ДЄlthough Edge is not available on Linux one rad Redditor has revealed a reliable wayВ to get voice calling toВ work in Mozilla Firefox. Microsoft recently retiredВ theВ need to useВ a plugin to make use ofВ Skype for WebвЂ™s calling features through itsВ Microsoft Edge web-browser. Sure you do, but you donвЂ™t need to wait for Microsoft to flick the вЂon switchвЂ™ on their side/fix the web compatibility bug blocking Linux users. This does not interest greedy and stupid Microsoft that ruins everything it touches.Want to make Skype calls through Skype for Web on Linux? The only reason why Microsoft forces people to use Skype with Chrome, Microsoft Edge, and other Chrominium-like browser is because Microsoft is tied with the government and Firefox prevents them from tracking your device when you tweak Firefox to make it seem like you are using a different operating system from tweaks and extensions. So, Firefox has bowed down to Google somewhat.

Meanwhile, Microsoft keeps you trapped into compatibility issues with Firefox because Firefox claims it tries its best for privacy friendly techniques despite you needing to tweak Firefox software after you installed it since it does not have a privacy friendly environment 100% after you install it since it works with advertisers like Google. will probably give you a crappy user experience sometimes while they are all used for the government to spy on you. *Maybe*, like Netflix, theyвЂ™ll try to make it *kind* of work in Firefox from time to time, but so long as it works in Google Chrome and MicrosoftвЂ™s future Chrome-based browser, why bother? ItвЂ™s not like any public antitrust enforcement authorities are going to come after them for conspiracy to maintain and extend a monopoly, right? And really, why would they?Д¬IA: вЂњSo do we! I mean, we can neither confirm nor deny that we like Google Chrome.вЂќДЄnything that is owned by Microsoft such as Skype, Google, Amazon, Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram the messaging app, etc. Then they adapted it to the current, moribund version of Edge, because as a Microsoft-owned outfit, they *had* to.

May I offer a guess? The Skype team started out by coding exclusively for Google Chrome, like *every other Web app and site developer* nowadays. Still, even though I donвЂ™t personally care what happens to Skype anymore, I *am* interested to find out exactly why the Web-version demo doesnвЂ™t work with Firefox. ItвЂ™s *nice* to be able to talk freely, even just about mundane things, without the Vole and Big Brother listening in and recording - a feeling that is becoming increasingly elusive. None of the people IвЂ™ve convinced to switch to Wire have regretted it.

The biggest challenge is getting your contacts to install it.

IвЂ™ve run into a few glitches, with both the Windows desktop and Android smartphone versions - and that NEVER happens with Skype, right? /s - but by and large, Wire works quite well, and I think its voice quality is actually superior to SkypeвЂ™s. IвЂ™m not involved in anything shady IвЂ™m just tired of having everything I do and say online get intercepted, analyzed, and stored for someone elseвЂ™s profit or leverage. I switched to Wire, where communications are (supposedly) encrypted end to end and (supposedly) inaccessible even to the folks that *run* Wire.
