Skype really is a trash application. Oh you don't have audio I know the fix, mute everything. If everything is muted no audio is a expected :)

Was there a reason to fly Emily Maitlis to Washington to sit outside and do Skype interviews? Not a funding issue but a pandemic issue.#NewsNight

Discord is, by a wide margin, the most confusing chat app I've ever used. And that's saying something, since there are quite a lot of them out there that have all kinds of weird quirks and issues, including Hangouts, Apple Messages, Skype, etc.

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

@christianp @k_houston_math ...how or having the equipment, which has improved immeasurably. (Like how I used to hate when someone said 'let's meet over Skype' because it always meant 30 mins of tech problems, but not now everyone is good at it.)

Literally once my Skype turns green my boss bombards me with IM’s and emails. And I..........just respond ok or ignore it. Send me one email or schedule one 30 minute meeting. Please don’t talk to yourself in my inbox working through problems Mandark get a chalk board.

Sometime in the last six months or so, the controls for Skype/Zoom/Team meetings disappeared from the iPhone Home Screen. I have to unlock to unmute and talk now. Super annoying on my walks. Where can I fix this?

@JackPosobiec Good luck! We tried to warn everyone what was happening in #Pennsylvania, no one wanted to listen as we’ve been locked down by our dictator @TomWolfPA, watching our loved ones die via Skype, not allowed to attend their funerals, and watching businesses crumble while state....

@olabini @xotoxot I followed the history of Wire. Originally it was meant as a replacemnet for Skype. Later it became a chat service, encrypted with only a few logs. Snowden favored Signal and the majority of the privacy scene followed this, Wire did not get a chance. Therefore they sold it.

When she was about 3/4 yrs old he promised to video call her every wednesday. He did good for like three weeks and then started ghosting and making excuses. For months my kid would sit on the stairs near the study waiting to hear that skype call that never came. Broke me down.

What I've learned taking a million Zoom/Skype/Google conference calls this past year: If I pull my COVID hair up I always get a lot of "oh wow" type comments. But if I leave it down they either say nothing or even say that I'm looking well! I figured it would be the opposite!
