@mbays - jitsi has worked well for me. You can even run your own server if you've got a VPS and FQDN. I liked it because it was still easy for my non-techie dad to download and use the app. vid/audio quality was as good as my VPS bandwidth.

@Half_Elf_Monk yeah, jitsi is fine, though rather heavy on the server; I recommend https://galene.org/ which is a much lighter implementation of the same idea.

So many people saying this, having not used it in YEARS...

This is extremely true. I last placed a Skype call sometime around... 2008?
