Recently, a very important event in the field of secure communications and instant messengers - the Tox project.
He set himself the task of replacing Skype and now he got to the Alpha version.
I want to draw your attention, the alpha version means that more than 90% of the functions work on all OS simultaneously:
- Audio calls
- Video calls
- File transfer
- TCP Relay
- DNS Name discovery
- Group chats
Tox developers decided to choose the best client from the set and call it official, this was uTox (
https://github.com/notsecure/uTox )
')
You can download it from the official site of the project -
wiki.tox.im/download.htmlSee all other clients here
wiki.tox.im/Unofficial_binariesThe Android version is here
wiki.tox.im/Antox (pre-alpha)
DNS Discovery
But besides the release of the alpha version, another event happened - a standard was approved and implemented which allows not to memorize long TOX ID - DNS Discovery
Thus, it is possible to register your address your_name@domain.net, i.e., by analogy with the mail.
