      Skype vs Campfire opinions
      This alternative is disputed. Skype is still a legitimate alternative to Campfire, but it might have issues that some users think are important.
      Campfire is about writing stories, managing them and so on. This alternative app is about chatting. Are there similarities? Absolutely not!!!!!!!
