What do you mean when you state that the web.skype.com extension doesn't support calls? Here's what I did:
1. Install the extension which you can find here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-web-skype/ 


2. Visit https://web.skype.com and sign in.
3. I have echo123 added as a contact, but if you don't, add them and visit their profile page. 

4. Click Audio Call.
5. A Web RTC prompt will appear asking you to approve microphone access. Allow it.
6. Then go through the usual echo123 process. You'll be asked to speak after a ding. I do, and hear my voice echoed back after 10 seconds or so.
Do you mean that web.skype.com doesn't support actual phone calls? That I've not tried, but at least as far as echo123 audio calls it seems to work well and is quite accessible.

Hello.
But web.skype.com extension don't have calls, be carefull on it. If you want calls, you have to use Google chrome, in Firefox you cannot call. If you want to use Google Chrome with accessibility, you have to install Google Chrome 80 unstable. 


thanks.

That's far from the latest version of Orca, given that 3.28 implies GNOME 3.28, which was 18 months ago at least.
I'd recommend just using web.skype.com and the extension unless you're prepared to build from Orca master, which is necessary for stable Chrome support. And that's a lot of hoops to jump through just to use Skype.

Greetings,

I am using orca-3.28.0 and Google Chrome 79.0.3945.79.

As for Skype and Firefox compatibility, I added the extension
recommended. It does seem now to allow use of Firefox, but I still
haven't figured out how to exactly navigate things with orca.

So what version of chromium do I need for orca to work -- I assume I
need orca master?

Thanks.

What version of orca and chrome did you try?

The latest versions of orca and chrome / chromium have good
accessibility. There are some flags that need to be passed to
chrome at the time of execution to enable accessibility.
I can't talk much about skype in the browser because I never used it. 

There were some pidgin plugins that made it possible to send and
receive text messages via skype. I don't know if they would be of
any help.

Greetings,
I am a user of ubuntu-18.04. I must take a job interview via skype in exactly one month. I have been trying to get skype working but with no 
success thus far. At the moment, I am totally lost and would
appreciate ANY detailed help. I tried installing the latest version of skypeforlinux, but orca stops speaking from the very first screen. I 
tried using skype from the website but was informed that firefox is
not a supported browser. So I installed the latest .deb file of
google-chrome (as searches seem to yield that chromium would not be
optimal) and discovered again that orca does not automatically work
with google-chrome. Now I would like to install chromevox, but I have found no clear-cut and recent directions on how to do this. And do I 
understand correctly that chromevox, once installed, is supposed to
work in tandem with orca? Again, any help would be MOST appreciated! 

Thank you very much.
