I know HN doesn't care much about software licensing and that kind of stuff, but there are many legal issues behind the project that remain unsolved and have remained unsolved for majority of the project's lifetime.ġ. This project has largely disappointed me in many ways.
#Qtox or skype update#
Do you see the pattern? I'm sorry for ranting about this, but imagine some random app update did stop the app from working and only displayed a black screen, you would be annoyed at least. Earlier this week I finally wanted to give Foursquare's new Swarm app a shot. Earlier this week Wunderlist released a version 3. To give this post some more context, earlier this week I looked at Stellar. Fix tooling: warn/error if you don't label your elements etc Inform developers better about accessibilityĢ. I'm quite sure the developers didn't write inaccessible software deliberately, but this makes me wonder if we need either:ġ.
two different stacks, but two inaccessible programs. Utox seems to be C++ and a GUI framework I didn't look into. Both programs are totally inaccessible for people using a screenreader and I'm quite sure as well for people using things like speech recognition. Just tested Utox on Windows as well as Toxy, also on Windows. I don't post often on HN, but today couldn't resist. Tox is alpha software, bugs are expected.įeel free to post any questions or feedback or visit us on IRC: #tox on freenode. To solve the inconvenience of sharing long IDs, Tox also supports "DNS names", for example You can register your own name on Note about adding friends in Tox: in the settings area of uTox you can find your Tox ID, and you give that out to your friends so that they can add you. If you use an operating system other than windows or linux (OSX or android) or want to try other Tox clients, see this page: It also supports text-only group chats (with audio/video being worked on).įor more info about Tox and uTox, see the project links below.
It supports text chat, file transfers, audio and video calling, desktop sharing (both as video and as screenshots). UTox is a lightweight (minimal dependencies) Tox client for Windows, Linux and (experimentally) Android. Tox is now usable and has reached alpha (in other words, it is mostly working, but lacking some features, bugs might be apparent). Now alpha with A/Vģ45 points by irungentoo on | hide | past | favorite | 139 comments Tox: A simple, distributed, free, secure Skype replacement.
