Yeah, if just use the website and never open the app it is fine.
Also pidgin is a great idea to talk to people who are on Skype. Ideally though
when we say alternatives to Skype I assumed we meant we are replacing both ends
of a conversation.
I use Telegram.

You discussion is out of topic. Do thread owner found the alternative? If
yes, stop bump the thread to much with unrelated to main topic.
Furthermore, i tried latest purple pidgin and send / received documents

I think both top posting and bottom posting are asinine. The correct answer is
to delete the quoted text and reply.
If there's something you're replying to in particular, maybe quote that one
