Anne 04/2013 ex-CHRO Skype said keep her updated; heard how treated at King by Execs ie CEO & Advisers, witnessed at Skype 2010/11. Post Skype I go to Sardinia; clear RZ CEO knew, how? Went with Mhairi Watson (ex-KPMG at RBS); her behaviour odd. 2013 she lied about me; help them.

@Sharon_SnowJade Teams seems pretty terrible for video stuff esp. if you want to see Teams docs/chat at same time. Zoom/Skype - ok. BlueJeans - defunct? LogMeIn - not sure yet. Then add the random assortment for lectures/conference... so many!!!

in 2011 microsoft bought skype and put an end to the last major p2p encrypted chat until the advent of stuff like signal. then in 2012 google bought and killed meebo, the last multi-platform im service, forcing everyone onto a single platform (skype, ironically)

If Microsoft buys Discord it becomes part of the Skype/Teams Frankenstein's monster. A lot of businesses are using Discord for customer service and internal team communications (breakout rooms, bots, automations).

@Hunter4J @XcloudTimdog I have no issues with that. Skype is obsolete, its time has passed I think. They'd be much better off making good use of discord (hopefully)

Some nights he would Skype family and cry for their help. Other nights after the lights had been turned off, I could hear him sobbing / sniffling while lying in bed. He had no friends. Eventually this became too much for me and I asked my advisor to be moved somewhere else.

Hi, @EposVox you have been a huge supporter of @Skype NDI and I really liked the idea. Do you know if it is in active development. I had some weird latency issues. Especially with audio - the latency which kept changing during the stream.

@Hunter4J @XcloudTimdog Skype is baked into Microsoft Teams which is very successful. But Discord has just overtaken the service at a fundamental quality level that Skype can't match.

@mewvore @RockLeeSmile Nah they'll just do the same thing they did with Skype and put in everything while bloating it to the point of uselessness and another service will come along to replace it eventually and then it'll get bought out too And the cycle continues

@HHShkMohd Great? But how about the communication issues which remote employees would face? The restrictions on Skype etc.

@NadeenYousef how come! Teams is great in all aspects, maybe you have a poor internet connection, cuz i couldn't find any issues dealing with it, about the full screen issue, maybe i didn't face because i have a 2 screens setup, but Skype is literally horrible, specially when it comes to chats
