Just of note, the classic version seems to support cloud based chats now.
There's been some conversions going on on the skype servers, and I reported
a couple of bugs to microsoft which appear to have been recently fixed.

I also tested it, and it seems to work.

I am rather thankful that you did this and at the same time surprised
Microsoft
decided to work on a dedicated Skype client for Linux.
Since the GNU/Linux community is responsive, we might make considerable
contribution to troubleshooting the client. I will probably give it a go to
