    @alanswan Skype can be very fiddly. People often seem to have trouble locating other people on it -- Zoom is just an all-round better platform.

  • hoodnewzmedia Hoodnewzmedia (@hoodnewzmedia) reported

    @satyanadella @verilylifesci @broadinstitute Would love to see Microsoft do something with Skype take what others are doing and make it better. Where is the language translator we saw years ago. Why can't AI help people to communicate in real time conversations in different languages.Why can't I have a headet Skype for free

  • HelenUngerClark Helen Unger Clark 🇪🇸 al 🇺🇲 (@HelenUngerClark) reported

    @translationtalk I'm having this issue now and I'm not quite sure why. I used to be able to skype with no problem. However, I can no longer use my home connection to use Skype or Zoom. I have to use my cellphone! It's a huge issue for me.

    @Skype @SkypeSupport more totally useless help, useless, totally fkn absolutely useless!!!

  • thebeatle02 Staalinthefamily (@thebeatle02) reported

    @_Jean__Valjean @kerri_HD @adrianraee Lol I wouldn’t go that far... the only scenes that work are the found footage. Otherwise you’ve got Vin Donofrio telling Ethan Klein “It looks like you’ve got a Baghoul problem on your hands there boss” over Skype. Riveting.

  • TCKPonders Stephanie (@TCKPonders) reported

    @stewardbank Whatsapps are not going through, skype is not being picked up, DMs are going unanswered. Really pathetic service

  • elasticretreat A.D. (@elasticretreat) reported

    @ecommerceshares I don’t think network effects work *as powerfully* in p2p as they do in broadcast/social. The original issue you’ve highlighted is the right one — execution risk from mgmt. Skype didn’t evolve for years (like Twitter) and an objectively superior product came along.

  • LuCactusVG Lucas (@LuCactusVG) reported

    @TheeMarkZ Mark you may have to go into camera settings and give Skype permission from Windows settings. I had an online meeting a few months ago on an old PC and had this issue.

  • Its_Major_A Major-Android (@Its_Major_A) reported

    @ciruelapasa17 @makeupaguy right? I drop out of discord calls constantly despite having a full internet connection, but I never have that issue with skype unless I actually do have internet troubles

  • Hd16fltru HD-16FLTRU (@Hd16fltru) reported

    @Newsweek Not her problem! She can use: Phone, Face-Time, E-Mail, Text, Skype, Zoom

  • Ask_WellsFargo Ask Wells Fargo (@Ask_WellsFargo) reported

    @joseeramirez Hello Jose, we currently don't have a way to send access codes via email. If a traditional phone call isn't possible you can also try to call us using the internet. Simply choose a VoIP service provider such as Skype, Google Hang outs, Viber, etc. then dial 1-800-956-4442. -Lacie

  • proviste Alain Proviste (@proviste) reported

    @Skype Could Skype STOP messing with my microphone settings at Windows level ? This is insanity, it's a terrible UX. And I have to fix the Skype settings PER USER, and it has been refixed like every week PER USER. I would never use this thing if I had a choice

  • xfearlessloux sophia misses liam (@xfearlessloux) reported
