Its proprietary so that's not a shock
So is Discord and Viber
Neither of which run well on Linux. Don't use proprietary software when there are other options
Last time I tried Viber, it ran fine on Linux, what issues have you had with it?
Discord also works pretty well, minus the white flashing when scrolling through GIFs for me
I had a problem with Viber on Linux, it crashed when picking up or starting a call, but that was quickly fixed.
Admittedly haven't tried calling with it, that being said I still need to reinstall it on my main laptop (only recently switched to Linux on that, was using an old laptop with Linux before that), so I'll try some stuff again
Viber and Discord aren't free (libre) software and should be avoided. I've never ran them because of that reason. However, I've heard lots of complaints of proprietary mainstream applications not being great on Linux.
"Neither of which run well on Linux."
"I've never ran them because of that reason."
Yikes.
