I still won't forget the time someone in the WoW roleplay community broadcasted calling me a slur they knew I took very personal issues with on Skype because I told them they shouldn't RP some questionable content in the guild we we both in. Continuously. Without fail. :/

@deonandan Bad lighting, weird backgrounds, sound problems, not knowing how to upload official event backgrounds or how to share Powerpoint slides without sharing their whole screen. Also, some people have trouble with Zoom because they don't use it often or have been using Skype/Teams.

Today for me isn't about TV or Wordpress. It's about Whatsapp, Instagram and Skype. I need proper rest. 4 years this ************ was up on me every single second with this ******* excuse of putting America First. I put my American connections first a whole lot. Gotta fix that.

"oops something went wrong" has to be the most pathetically useless error message I've ever seen. Sort it out, skype.

@MedusaBaked I’m so sorry sweetie. My dad issues messed me up to. He died 3 years ago. Never made an effort to even call me. a year before he died family members set up a Skype so we could finally meet in some form...he was more interested in my daughters than me. I guess I was ok with that

@JerbalKeb You can suggest it, yes. I've had Signal for quite a while. It doesn't help in my situation. Unfortunately no alternative will help. This situation specifically *requires* Skype.

Now they are refusing to help and will only help if I go on Skype. Not a good way of conducting business in my opinion

@WrestlingClio is it consistent? I’ve had that on Skype before and usually the problem is fixed by hanging up and reconnecting

@Anas_Aspi @jordanbpeterson I don't think you have to lock down where are you locked down and you can't go outside? That would be hard to do I guess telephone and Skype and you know . Read some books reinvent yourself. Just remember you'll be free one day maybe.

@PeeBeeJayBee yeah here teaching uses Teams, admin uses Blackboard Collaboration, HR uses skype for business, colleagues use Zoom. zoom seems to be the most trouble-free of the lot, though at this point I don't know if that's saying much

@ske7ch Yeah you guys are all Skype. ;) Kidding. This is getting very common. I have to deal with tracking it down occasionally and we’re not even remotely as attractive a contractor as 343.

Can anyone help w/ my @Skype settings? Because I'm ready to snap! The text, and my contacts are now so small I can barely read them. I hold down control & tap plus and NOTHING! I accidentally clicked on the wrong screen & minimized this POS to the point where it's unreadable!

@jasonmashak Sounds like a conflict between system settings and an app. If aligning the two settings, or allowing one to rule them all, doesn't help, the culprit is almost certainly a poorly written app. Never had issues with Skype/ForBusiness but Webex was a major PITA.

Face it, you’re not working from home, you’re moving the mouse every five minutes to stop Skype turning yellow.

@whitequark there was that kind of brief period in the late 2000's where you could login to facebook messenger, google chat etc via XMPP. Even up to 2015 I was logging in to Lync/Skype for Business with pidgin which worked well for chat
