I just recently installed the Skype package (verson 8.67.0.96) on Mint 20 MATE and whenever I attempt to log on and get it set up, I get the following error message: "Unable to sign in. Please check your internet connection and try again."
Internet connection is fine. Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, what was your workaround?
Thanks.

You can check your firewall settings to see if it has blocked skype. I'm using the same version on Cinnamon and don't have a problem.

Thanks. I just checked the firewall settings and there's nothing that appears to be blocking Skype. Will continue to troubleshoot.

Re: Skype Login Error on LM 20 MATE
Did you ever find a solution because I've just encountered the same. Internet connection is good, no firewall rules to block Skype, on the Windows 7 laptop next to the Linux laptop which uses the same internet connection, router etc I can get to Skype easily in Slimjet (my browser) but neither the native Skype app or the browser (Slimjet again) will connect on the Linux laptop.
