     @laibcoms Please don't use skype it's proprietary software, plenty of open source alternatives are available.

     @gollo technically linux is an open OS and there is nothing wrong with installing proprietary software on an open OS

     @gollo why not talk about stuff like that in !linux ? you want to turn linux into it's own proprietary by restricting our choice?

     @dns ^^ Already deleted it. My intentions were exactly that, choice & for ppl who r forced to use skype coz their clients use it.

     @dns I guess the identi.ca Linux group is strictly FLOSS-for-FLOSS.

     @laibcoms I for one was happy to hear about the new Skype in !Linux - it's not like you were posting in !freedomhippiesonly or anything. :P

     @dns @dashavoo I didn't say you shouldn't use it if you like, but wanted to give @laibcoms a hint. Sorry it sounded that bad :-/

     @foomandoonian There were already two skype related posts in !linux but you shouldnt use such software

     @dns @dashavoo (continuation): I recommend to read http://ur1.ca/amu1 and http://ur1.ca/amu5 if you want to know why I don't like #Skype

     @darwinsurvivor Fair enough. I didn't see the other post(s). @theuser Part of the freedom of !Linux is being able to choose - open or not.
