@_serenitystar_ @smart_bn With some companies they keep changing their numbers around. That is one of the issue with Skype type numbers, they hide the true number just like 0345/0845 special service ones.

@scrowder Lockdowns. I'm 27 and looking to find someone to settle down with. Am I supposed to have a meaningful connection with someone via Skype? Not that I particularly care about social distancing, but meeting new people due to lockdowns has become nearly impossible.

Anybody here use Ubuntu 20.04?! - Upgraded on Sunday and now whenever I watch a video (YouTube, Zoom, Skype) fans go into overdrive and the thing eventually shuts down. Worked fine on 18.04. Help? #Linux #Ubuntu

In-person meetings help foster relationships in a way that Skype or conference calls often do not.

@cbavington @lookingglassxl8 @memoQ_Official So I should probably clarify that my problem is not strictly with "track changes" but compare versions. I'd be interested if any of you can get "Compare versions" to work properly. I'd love to Skype with someone some time to see how it works on their computer.

@MarkoftheGODS Skype always had connections issues but I think because they had no competition, there was no push to make a better more reliable product. They also didn’t save the chats you sent. Overall Teams is the better product because it integrates with your email and calendar via outlook

@martinfowler we encountered performance issues with Skype on Macs. Yet teams appeared unaffected, so we switched to that almost exclusively. I can't recall if audio calls were also bad, but it was certainly less bad. Also CPU related, but can't recall what process.
