basic smartphone functions: video call, internet call

the question is very simple. On Jolla, how can one make/receive video calls or at least normal audio calls over internet? I prefer Skype since i already have an account. But any other service (that works properly) is fine too.

if this functionality is not yet available; will it be implemented and when?


How I do this currently: my brother/parents calls to my local number.
Then I launch Android Skype and move to a secluded area (since the Audio comes out through the speakers). And this isn't a good experience.

Any suggestions to help is welcome. Any tips or how other users make audio calls over internet. Thanks.

Edit: this is not a request to include any particular 'centralized, proprietary' service compatibility. I just want to make voice calls over internet, that's all.
