Now, you can update Apt and install qTox. Then, copy the following into that file and save. $ cd /etc/apt//įrom there, use your preferred text editor through sudo to create a new list file in that directory. To get started, cd to the directory containing the configuration files for external repositories. Essentially, it functions the same way, though, it’s just a bit more manual. Instead, the developers decided to make qTox available through a classic Debian-style repository. The use of the name “Debian” was deliberate. The qTox repository is like any other external Debian repository. Because of this, getting up and running on Ubuntu is fairly easy. It is also the most widely packaged and available of them, and the developers maintain their own repositories for qTox.
QTox is, as its name suggests, a Qt based Tox client, and it has seen the most active development of any of the available Tox clients. Though development of Tox is still very much so under way, there are mostly stable clients available for use right now, the most notable of which is qTox. Tox is an open source, decentralized, and encrypted video, voice, and text chat solution available across multiple platforms with numerous clients available. In response to these lacking options, independent developers have been collaborating to create Tox. Additionally, development of the Skype Linux client has been unpredictable at best, even stalling for a number of years, only to resume just recently.
Many people rely on proprietary chat solutions like Skype, but those solutions pose serious concerns for both privacy and security.
