- Rated 5 out of 5by ha3flt, 3 years agoThank you, phts, for the add-on, it is much better than spending time to collect the necessary browser id's to be faked.
The reason why I searched for this:
- I won't install any MS product on my main Kubuntu desktop machine with my personal data for the obvious reasons,
- so I keep open a tab with the Skype in Firefox, which is pinned and always opened,
- I used to have a Chromium tab for it previously, but I feel myself better not to keep an entire browser open continuously solely for the Skype.
Since I make sound and video calls on my phone (or just boot a Windows for the time of conferences), I use the web based Skype client only for chatting, and it does that perfectly. - Rated 5 out of 5by Tahir, 4 years agothank you for this extension.
Shame on you Microsoft for throwing Firefox users away and actually enforcing Chrome's monopoly. 👎 😵 - Rated 5 out of 5by grahamperrin, 4 years agoAlso allows basic functionality with Teams for friends and family.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13544148, 5 years agoNEVER USE THIS. If u want to use skype online just use google chrome or install skype desktop. It's really buggy and killed my interview. Firefox is not supported with a reason! not for Chrome's monopoly

I don't think it is possible within this plugin. Skype uses WebRTC protocol with non-standard extensions which work only in Chrome. That's why Microsoft turned off support for FF.
So this plugin gives only access to web site. Everything else may not work due to such differences.
