The new Skype version has been terrible, at least on macOS.
What are some good alternatives that offer group calls and screen sharing?

Surprisingly good. No account required, no limit on number of people, good screen sharing, works everywhere(because web-based).
Skype was decent a decade ago, and it has declined since then.
On android, when I log in as my account, the only contacts I have are those from my sisters account (???) and none of my subscriptions are there so I can't even make calls that require Skype credit even though my account has credit. I had to add my wife as a contact and none of my chat history with her showed up. As close to unusable as it comes...
Slack is good for 1-1 calls though.
And of course there are possibly hundreds of free and open source alternatives, but I don't know of any that can be easily used from a browser.
I hope the Mattermost video-audio chat ( https://docs.mattermost.com/deployment/webrtc.html ) gains enough momentum to become a well established alternative.
