@xx_hannah_xx Yeah, unpopular opinion, but I think moving Discord to Azure and dealing with all the problems that crop up might mean more stability for the service in the long term. If I had to trust my life Skype or Discord to send a message, it would be Skype.

@JakeBaldino I hope not Discord would get ruined cause Skype has been complete garbage since forever and they shut down msn messenger too

@SignpostMarv That's the only upside to this. Microsoft butchered Skype so bad that Discord became as popular as it is because of how bad Skype got to use. They just can't help trying to remake MSN messenger, bugs and all

@pixelyunicorn And honestly, I can't fault them on Skype's fate, it was already broken beyond repair before they got it and just needed an actual competitor to finally fall into the grave. Can't say they really _helped_ avert that fate tho

@TravisHymas @EFF Skype is the worst to use for communication in a job. It's so outdated and just terrible.

@Lonely_Fricker I swear skype was a paid service but I'm probably just an idiot (so nothing out of the ordinary tbh)

@LenaAxios /me stares at Skype... Like even ignoring what they did the Mixer, they have a service that worked the same way, and they butchered it.

@PixelMetal @Romudeth Only problem i have had is due to how our VPN works. If I don't restart Teams after reconnecting it gets upset, but so does Outlook and Skype.

@business I mean if it can regulate the furry **** (redundancy) chats that promulgate Discord, cool. Although I can't help but think they'll treat it as poorly as they did skype

@HoegLaw I hate Skype and refuse to use it, the LAST thing I want is Microsoft to shove all the privacy issues Skype has on the one thing I do use

@JakeBaldino I mean, look what they did with Skype? Nothing. Microsoft will probably run it to the ground in 4-5 years. Skype should have been THE video conferencing service to use during the lockdown, instead they got beat by the new kid on the block, Zoom

I just started Discord, and now Im gonna end my account bc Microsoft is buying it apparently. My problem is that Microsoft will kill what it is, Skype is dead and owner by Microsoft. Why cant they build their own apps? If they put some effort they can redefine it.
