On Thursday 07 April 2022, William Morder via tde-users was heard to
say:
Now I see linphone can be installed on an Android? Not
sure how it
works, but I'm willing to give it a go. Looks like I might need to
find that old headphone/microphone combo, and get some more
attachments for the laptop.
Signal has excellent voice quality and sends calls across the 'Net
rather than using cell minutes. Since it's end-to-end encrypted it's
the best thing I know of at this time.
My first puter-to-puter voice attempt was PGP Phone, back around 1994
or so. Then Skype came along and worked so very well, until bought by
Microsloth.
VoIP requires a server and trunk lines, tons of pre-configuration,
more work than it's worth now that cell phones are ubiquitous.
