    @koopadoll Still better than former dark ira land on the *** of the worl in a country that had an agenda on not letting trans people transition. (my wife has to use a UK Dr on Skype and the blood tests are denied by any Irish Dr) and a plethora od other medieval problems.

    @RDXThinksThat @India_1st If you get a paid Skype subscription, you can make international calls to mobile and fixed lines without having to pay international call rates. You cannot make emergency service calls though.

    @GaneshSP47 overzealous kalendar chhaap peepal! my previous team was so nice. once i left a msg on skype regarding some issue coz he was away. He said call me anytime dude. if I cant take it, will return it ASAP. And the mgr clubbed most meetings together. agenda based, outcome driven :-)

  • NathanaelB Nathanael Coyne (Nat) (@NathanaelB) reported

    @z_rose @trib It's almost certainly not a security issue and more likely a bandwidth and network performance thing so it wouldn't matter if it were Zoom, WebEx, Skype, or Teams.

  • _Rbot_ Rooben.avi (@_Rbot_) reported

    Im in a skype call called actual Mishas please help me

  • SredanovicDj Djordje Sredanovic (@SredanovicDj) reported

    @PhdAmaka Have been doing phone, Skype, Zoom or whatever the interviewee prefers, in part since before the pandemic. As others who have already answered I always use the physical recorder. Have to confess that any option can have some limits - connections falling down or having bad audio.

  • ronnieClarke69 Ronnie Clarke (@ronnieClarke69) reported

    @maxrushden the sound on the Pep, Pépe podcast is terrible, I know your doing it on Skype/zoom but volume goes up and down, very loud for adverts, then low for the actual podcast, couple of time Barney just faded out and volume came back. Shame, the lockdown podcast have been 👍

  • DrHughMore Adem (@DrHughMore) reported

    If you're a doctor, it could be helpful to contact Az MoD to volunteer some part-time service, in case they need it in your area of specialization. There are never too many experienced doctors. Even if over Skype/Zoom, consultations and meetings could be of big help. #Azerbaijan

    @chrissanders88 Dang...this is absolutely why I set a PIN and wrote it down & shared with other caregivers for our 86 year old grandfather for his new iPad. I tried setting it to have no login (threat modeling given his use case of Skype). 100% he would lock himself out.

  • thomasjo Thomas Johansen (@thomasjo) reported

    One of the big hurdles is a general lack of proper support for GNU/Linux in popular (collaborative) software such as Skype, Teams, Slack. None of these have decent support for screen sharing, etc, which has made the whole WFH experience more terrible than necessary.

  • CharcoRogue Charco💙💜💗 (@CharcoRogue) reported

    Guess who had an emotional break down on Skype during dnd..... I DID

  • CliffPierce14 Southern Traveller (@CliffPierce14) reported

    @finn188 @charliekirk11 Over 2% die from the virus 14% will have ongoing respiratory and pulmonary issues Agree with what you say about social distancing and masks. But there are too many people headed to airports at present to spread it Giving it a miss and calling via Skype would be better this year

  • SheaBlack8 Shea Black (@SheaBlack8) reported

    @OhVonda We are. Just me and my hubby. My mom is sending us some of her famous sides to our house and we are send some of ours to hers. She’s only 3 doors down so not a hassle. We will Skype while eating.

  • johnpotterLD Cllr John Potter 🔶🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇪🇺 (@johnpotterLD) reported

    @tomgordonLD Skype is terrible

  • PwnySlaystation Modus Pwnens (@PwnySlaystation) reported

    @catovitch Yeah... And they've ruined Skype for Business too, by "integrating" it into Teams. At work we used Skype for Business and have been piloting teams. We were all pretty excited for the extra features, but it's terrible. We all hate it now after using it for a while
