• Linux Desktop VOIP That Works Over TCP?

  Well I can tell you that any SIP program can do this, one that comes to mind is Linphone. But you do need a provider. Almost all providers deal with UDP. You might be able to find one that transmits over tcp but that’ll be a very small list. TCP isn’t reliable for VoIP, for media anyway. At best you’ll find one that encrypts the signaling over TLS, which is TCP. But audio, even if encrypted too, is done over UDP.... Source: over 1 year ago

• How Google is forcing us to make our open source VoIP app worse

  Does Linphone (https://linphone.org/) not meet that need of cross platform (website claims versions for all major OS'es) and open source (https://gitlab.linphone.org/BC/public/linphone-desktop)? - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• US Sony Xperia 5 III phone, best MVNO carrier or otherwise? Visible, MINT, Tello?

  Similarly, you can use any SIP (VoIP) provider (e.g. VOIPo Cloud), and configure the SIP account details in your native phone app. This way you will also be able to use a SIP softphone on your computer (e.g. LinPhone on Linux or Telephone on Mac), or even a real SIP phone in your home. Depending on your SIP plan you may or may not be able to make international calls this way. Source: over 2 years ago
