I'm looking to avoid using Discord for voice calls... I've always had gripes with it over the years but I'm fed up lol.

I need a stable voice call app that is cross platform (needs to work on Windows/Android/iOS). That's it. No screen sharing necessary.

I do my best to use Signal for texts, but my mutuals only care for so much...

Signal can do voice/video calls fine? I use it all the time when gaming with friends

This was my original proposal, but my friend is worried about messing up their Signal acc that could render it useless (they've seen me brick my laptop while installing Linux Mint...)

(They use signal on a phone, but want to use their android tablet and worried about messing up the linking device part)

molly (a signal fork) allows linking phones and tablets as secondary devices

I use Molly as my main app for Signal!! (I don't use GMS), but considering it's the most "tech noob friendly" option I've seen, I might get my friend to do that for their Android tablet

The Android tablet makes it a deal-breaker. You cannot use a Signal account from multiple Android or iOS devices without using a 3rd-party client like Molly.
