  • AlexaJessop1 Alexa Jessop (@AlexaJessop1) reported

    @BelindaJones68 We Zoom and Skype the kids down in Wagga all the time. Unfortunately we don't have unfettered access to money at every whim. Skyping and Zooming has to suffice for us.

  • valbenicio Valzito 🦄 (@valbenicio) reported from Goiânia, Goiás

    @Skype I need you help @SkypeSupport

  • MikeHypercube Mike Bennett (@MikeHypercube) reported

    Skype is irretrievably broken. Not only does it let people make ringing noises on your PC and telephone (yes, with the Skype logo in the window) but it lets there be no record of them having done so, for you to block them.

  • zehavoc Djamé (@zehavoc) reported

    @thewulf7 @Skype Hi, I'm experiencing a lot of issues when I'm running skype while videoconferencing on big sur. All cpus are are around 80/100%. Fans are screaming and the whole system starts to be unresponsive. Have to kill skype everytime. Wasn't the case at all with my last OS (mojave)

  • spandexraccoon Fleece Raccoon (@spandexraccoon) reported

    I'm guessing Discord is another Skype type of service?

  • Weeaboo__Bot Weeaboo Bot (@Weeaboo__Bot) reported

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

  • NaoHound Nao Hound🏍️ENVtuber (debut TBA) (@NaoHound) reported

    @CoffeVtuber Yeah, the only thing left is an interview in person, the rest they did via Skype. And no problem :3

  • VGDevotee VideoGameFan03713 (@VGDevotee) reported

    @SkypeSupport Did you get this thread yet? This user is incredibly disrespectful to people and I want him taken down for such behavior.

  • Paestrol Paoes TRol (@Paestrol) reported

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

  • xoDahliaDee Dahlia Dee 🐙 (@xoDahliaDee) reported

    @rylandbabylove @StarwarsLJedi I'll be taking down this tweet in an hour because apparently some boys can't behave. All I know is that theres one less regular on my Skype list, I am not interested in providing a service for anyone who would blatantly out me on social media & risk having my accounts terminated.

  • mcdircks Cindy McCraw Dircks (@mcdircks) reported

    Has anyone else tried reaching @SkypeSupport? I don't think they exist. I'm hoping public shaming will force a representative to finally help me cancel my account. @Skype @SkypeBusiness #Skype #SkypeRefund

  • VGDevotee VideoGameFan03713 (@VGDevotee) reported

    @SkypeSupport I want to report a user for using the service for abuse. His name is MichaelDoesLife and he has been publicly insulting and demeaning people who worked for companies he harassed on Twitter. He does the same to people in his chat for streams or call via Skype.

  • ajjeys Jeys A J (@ajjeys) reported

    @Telstra Hi, how is that only Video call apps are not working on your internet over NBN - FTTP. WhatsApp, Skype, Teams, Webex are all having connectivity issues even though the internet speed is 100Mbps?

  • BoiLeftist LeftistSadBoi (@BoiLeftist) reported

    @CSpace1990 What do you mean by forfeit? Is he cowardly backing down behind the scenes, or is he not willing to use Skype or whatever? Or something in between?

    @icewindow @Alchypon @Minty_Root Skype has pretty much copied Teams' infra and watered down the UI a bit

  • abalonepg 阿一鮑魚 (@abalonepg) reported

    @Ivdown12 the scene where Harry has to say goodbye to his daughter Grace via Skype, dude if you’re seriously not balling tears you just aren’t really a human being! Then when Harry has a problem detonating the nuke on the asteroid AJ says “Harry doesn’t know know how to fail” omg

  • Din0za Din0za (@Din0za) reported

    @Merryweatherey @PrincessHinghoi @cazzastrophe Skype is a terrible piece of crap, only uneducated old people using it, because for work everyone is using dedicated apps for communication like WhatsApp or the likes.

  • sixregrets laurennnnnnnnn (@sixregrets) reported

    @NoraReed i got really irritated about that about a decade ago and changed my name in work skype and my email signature to 'dr. (firstname)'. never got in trouble for it, some asked questions, some took it seriously!
