@JKirstaetter @Skype :) Doesnt MS has enough money. Why Skype has to show ads. I’m still on classic Skype BTW you would think they will build custom ad free Skype for me for my 23 years of service promoting MS

@acmmayur There will always be user error &/or entropy in the mix. I recall a time at a former company when we used Skype daily and had a #SkypeDown incident... we then started looking at other options. But the main thing is to establish a backup plan that the whole company is aware of.

That painful reminder of how bad Teams and Skype are that you only get when Slack is down 💔

Slack is down so we're on Skype. Lol it's going to be a long day. I had to look up how to mute Skype.

Every time Slack goes down, I am convinced that @amiller reclines back in his chair, puts his feet up, and thinks to himself, "And they make fun of me when I say that Skype is better."

You all laughed when I said we used Skype at work. But with Slack down, who's laughing now? Still you. Skype sucks.

@SkypeSupport @Skype What is wrong with you? Do you think I have nothing else to do as to play a verification game for a skype account that fails every time? You got my email and I provided the code. The game is not working for me. What now?

@SkypeSupport have you recently updated your ‘live captions’ function? I found it really helpful previously but now it’s slower and doesn’t help with natural conversation - lots of pauses waiting for it to catch up.

@bt_uk Tried all sorts of fault finding. Replacement set was ordered, delivered this morning and is now working. Therefore not a BT problem but her equipment failure. Troubleshooting with a 90 year old via Skype was challenging...

Slack is down so we've reverted back to our roots. Skype for business 🤢
