Hi folks,

I use Skype installed from Debian official repo.  A couple of days ago
it refused to update reporting "server timed out". After looking into
it, I found that MS removed Skype.deb package from their server and
basically forces everyone to use Snap package instead.

Skype is the only app I would need Snap for on my system. Unfortunately,
I still need Skype and I do not see any alternative but to concede to MS
(and Ubuntu?) brute coercion.

To hell with Ubuntu, I use Google Voice, Chat and Meet. All three are free and work great just using the browser.
 
Any body installed Snap on their Debian system? Any problems with that
thing? Any suggestions to use Skype otherwise?

Thanks
