Avatars and emoji
Can you even call it chatting now without emoji to inject context for potentially ambiguous statements? Avatars are great too for keeping track of who you're talking to since usernames are inscrutable hashes.

Peter J. Mello's Experience
qTox has been my preferred Tox client for years, with a simple, intuitive interface and all the features I've needed (and some I've never even tried, like video calling). It has a modern feel thanks to the Qt framework and regular updates that respond effectively to any bugs or security issues that are discovered.

Voice chat
Switching to voice chat is simple, though often fairly sensitive to network congestion with struggles to regain high-bitrates/audio clarity afterwards.

File transfers
Sharing files is done between clients with the same encryption used for messages without any perceptible loss of speed.

Group chats
Chatting with a group of people is no more complicated than the one-on-one conversations, without any need to re-join a "room" everytime you open the client as is done on IRC.

Large variety of install packages
Releases for Linux distributions include native binary packages for Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, openSUSE and Ubuntu. Also available are Flatpaks and AppImages as well as tarballs, not to mention the more ubiquitous EXE and DMG files catering to Windows and MacOS users, respectively.
