Yes, please, please, please kill Skype. Kill it mercilessly. Using it has been the worst experience I've ever had with an application. I've been in a long distance relationship for a few years now and Skype has sadly been our main mode of video communication. The app crashes when I search chat history, can take upwards of 90+% of my CPU, literally forcing me to shut down every other application I have running. The forums are full of complaints, all unanswered. We've tried gChat and the plugin either goes undetected or slows down my machine as well (although not as bad as Skype). I'm running a 2010 MBA, so I've got the resources. So death to Skype, and open arms to WebRTC.
