    J'en avais entendu parler, mais pour moi ce n'était pas encore utilisable au quotidien.
    Est-ce que tu peux au moins confirmer que les appels vidéos 1:1 fonctionnent bien entre toutes les plate-formes et que la qualité est correcte ?

    Quelques critiques que j'avais trouvées :

    Ring: works reasonably well on the desktop and on mobile (Android, no iOS client); the desktop client on Linux is UI-wise still very rough (e.g. no real address book). For me, the UI is too annoying to use it for simple messaging. As it relies on a DHT, the mobile client can be used only on Wi-Fi, making it unsuitable for mobile messaging on the go. I have never tried group chat or group calls but would assume that it is inferior to Tox with regard to these advanced features. You can't share one user id across different devices. Advantages include that it is developed by a company and thus has a somewhat sustainable future (one might hope). It also includes a traditional SIP client that you can use to call regular phone numbers.

    As for Ring, well... I couldn't get it to even start any chat conversation let alone audio or video call. That's it really. I double checked that I exchanged correct IDs with the other party, but neither side could receive chat messages or see pending calls.

    I also tried Ring (which I was unable to get working correctly during my tests)
