Great decentralised tool that is not difficult to adopt. Nifty way to share the account between devices, and also allows for extra SIP accounts. Most likely to grow into a decentralised, open source Skype killer, in my opinion!
Ring is a much more secure, quicker and functional alternative than using a commercial application, like Skype. Since I use GNU/Linux, and most of the rest of my family uses Windows or macOS, Ring is a great, secure choice.
Jami is my favorite alternative to Skype. I highly recommend Jami.
Strength:
• Free. No ads.
• Unlimited. Without restriction on file size, speed, bandwidth, features, number of accounts, storage or anything else.
• You can sign-in an unlimited amount of accounts at the same time on multiple devices. Then receive notification for all of them.
• Easy to use.
• Very strong security. Thanks to both its end-to-end encryption & peer-to-peer communications. Also complies with X.509 standard.
• Distributed. It works with or without internet connection. Users who are on the same local network can communicate with Jami even if they are disconnected from the internet. Which is very handy in case of real emergency or unlikely natural catastrophe affecting external communication networks. In other words, Jami does not require a server for relaying data between users.
• Multi-platform. Available on Linux, Android, AndroidTV, Windows, macOS and iOS.
• Positions itself as a free Skype replacement
• Optional SIP client account(s). Which allow you to answer & make VoIP telephone calls from anywhere in the world where you are connected to the internet.
• Multilingual
• Anonymous. This is optional. When you create your Jami account, no personal information needs to be provided.
• Open source. If you are not familiar with "open source", it means this software has both stronger security & stronger privacy. Because its code is publicly available for review and contributions at https://git.jami.net/savoirfairelinux
• Attractive GNU General Public License version 3. This means the software code of this extension is owned and supported by a friendly not-for-profit community. Instead of a for-profit corporation. https://git.jami.net/savoirfairelinux/ring-client-gnome/-/blob/master/COPYING

There is video conferencing and the ability to show a desktop.
Love the fact that it works offline if the person you're talking with is connected to the same router or other device like that
