On Linux Mint 21.3 the latest version of the flathub Skype always crash just after start!!! Complete reinstallation solve this problem only temporary...soon, or later same problem with immediate crash after start.

Any workaround or solution???

Any response??? Current status of Skype is as completely unusable on LinuxMint and other Ubuntu 22.04 based distros??!!

This is a long shot but try to check with Flatseal what sockets are enabled. It should have X11 enabled and Wayland disabled.

I have crash issues on Fedora 40 with all flatpak skype versions newer than 8.113.0.210. 8.113.0.210 is the last version that works. Note: if you downgrade make sure you do not have parts of the crashed newer skype version running before you try out the old version to verify.

Does not crash here On F40. Version 8.119.0.201. Make sure to delete all .skype* and .Skype* dirs in your home dir.

@nerijus Indeed after removing: rm -rf ~/.var/app/com.skype.Client the 8.119.0.201 version starts up fine. However, after logging out and choosing "remember settings(...)" any attempt to start it again will cause a crash here.

Can you confirm that it works more than once for you @nerijus ?

nerijus commented 2 months ago

Yes, it works. I had a problem before that settings were not saved and I had to remove ~/.Skype* or ~/.config/skype* (not ~/.var/app/...!) dir, and then settings were saved and Skype starts more than once.

Latest version 8.125.0.201, considered as fully working on Ubuntu, crash on Linux Mint 21.3 after start, again, and again ...??!!
