@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

@FrankFirez @BenjiSales Skype is trash. Microsoft closes down or makes everything they buy die. It’s trash. Look at Nokia

@Lowco2525 Well, when they bought Skype that fixed all the issues it had. 😐

@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.

@Enichan Skype's codebase is reportedly nuclear waste levels of terrible, and I wouldn't be surprised if their plan was to fold Skype into Discord rather than the other way around.

@ZhugeEX Well if I know Microsoft, it's so they can close down Skype and direct everyone to start using Discord. Which is exactly what they did to MS Messenger when they bought 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

@boring_cactus "The service won't get worse" (* Looks at Skype, Teams, and so many others ... *) I... I don't feel so great. 🥴

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.

@Hytsia @business You're right. It's called people left skype cause discord came to be. If discord never popped up Skype would still be the #1 service in that area today. And discord only took over the market cause it was more tailored to gamers, the main demographic for skype for awhile.

So I'm putting it out there...I need some help. While I'm streaming, audio from chrome and zoom/skype can't be heard on stream. I work from a Mac, so does anyone have some pearls of wisdom so I can get this fixed?

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

The Lost Messenger
(@MessengerLost) reported
@Minty_Root I remember the days of when group chats were held on Skype. It was considered a minor miracle whenever the program worked without any problems for a whole day.
