Skype is horribly slow on android and sucks on Linux as well. Google took a step backwards with Hangouts, Talk before was actually almost usable. But nevertheless, XMPP is based on XML which sucks in itself. Is there a minimal, open source video conferencing solution that doesn't suck?

Maybe you just need more bandwidth? Video is a greedy beast no matter what the software. I think Skype does a pretty good job for the most part.

But yeah it would be nice if more people interoperated with Ekiga and other open source clients.
