@LavenderLady0 Honest question, as I'm sure you're not the only one feeling that way. Would getting a few folks onto a Skype call to talk rubbish for an hour be of any help?

I have had days at work where in the space of hours I have been on a Zoom call, a Teams call, a Google call and a Skype call. So I understand Mr. van der Veen’s frustration. We must unite around one technology. This is the problem of the day. Do we have the courage to face it?

@Skype please help. I have a very distressed elderly friend who is isolating and has accidentally lost his Skype account and all contacts. He is extremely distressed and needs to speak to someone to help as online instructions only making it worse. Please help now. Today.

@caseyjohnellis Skype has similar service, but I skipped it mostly due to spotty SMS deliveries on virtual numbers.

@robjamison Yeah, Skype (esp the international calling stuff) is like buying a regulated utility, not really MS's strength area. Also doesn't help that MS buys products where they already have existing worse products-Teams, but with much better connected VPs who've an incentive to sabotage.

@khaled_Jabr Especially for one on one calls I've never really had a problem with #Skype, but I know a lot of people have less than optimal experiences.

Isn't it weird that, when there was suddenly a humongous demand for their service, Skype faded away into nothing and Zoom, an unknown entity, was just there. Surely this should have been Skype's moment. Gutted.

@MKressmark @mozzeph I have a customer with similar issues but not exactly the same. They want to remain in the teams call muted while handling the phone call but without having Skype running in the background, the teams call is put on hold instead of just going on

@bjpren I’m not cabled - connecting to the router via WiFi which probably doesn’t help. I hate teams but the company has just moved us all over to it from Skype (which I preferred)

It's 2013. You're listening to Fix You - Coldplay on repeat. Your hopeful lonely *** has Facebook open to check out messages. You and the boys hop on a Skype call to play some Minecraft. Life was simpler. Life kinda sucked tbh. **** that.

@generativist I always propose just using the damn phone first and cite my mic issues. I have some clients in Europe and South America who I have to Skype with, though.

Random tip - don't add anyone that you DON'T KNOW onto your Skype. You can get DOXXED. If someone has the intention to ruin your life, they will do so.... you can tracked down (ie. if someone gets your IP or personal information through other ways).

@caseyjohnellis Skype has similar service, but I skipped it mostly due to spotty SMS deliveries on virtual numbers. If you want to avoid 3rd party VoIP, then a combo of E-SIM+SIM is the best.
