Dear All,
Recently, the linux rpm distribution of skype has been discontinued:
https://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?332743-Updates-hang-on-skype&p=1883992
Is there some alternative to using snap or web-skype

If you have 2 separate sessions open for the given user last save/exit
wins and overwrites the history file. This may be an
oversimplification but 2 sessions both saving out do seem to make a
mess.
And if there is no -TERM and/or clean exit then nothing gets written out.

Just to note: boot-time grubenv modification is used for more than boot
