Tox
Tox is a peer-to-peer GPLv3 application and protocol that aims to replace Skype.
It features audio and video calls, an rich chat with integrated file-sharing, group chat, screen-sharing (or more exactly "screen-showing"), and Tor support.
Debugging
Get the debugging build for your platform (e.g.μTox for x86_64) and run it with `gdb`. Verify the build with the nightly signing public key: gpg --verify file.tar.gz (you must have the corresponding signature file next to the archive.
