Played a game of D&D over video call today. Initially tried Skype because everyone had it installed, switched to Zoom because we were having issues hearing each other. I’m flabbergasted at how much better Zoom was. Skype struggled with audio, zoom managed video with no issues.

@drraja_ @gmcuk too preponed my exam to help facilitate august recruitment so I was wondering if the PLAB2 can be taken earlier than June via skype & if I (or people like me, with experience in critical care or A&E) pass, we can join early and help the NHS when it needs doctors the most.

@DellCares This is what I got from @Dell for support: "Since the issue is only with team viewer, I suspect an issue with that application as the webcam works on Skype. For this, you will have to contact our advance software paid support team on 1800-425-0088 for further assistance."

@dwvcd @WashletJP Cisco Webex and Bluejeans seemed to be the powerhouses up until a few years ago. Cheapskates who were cool with terrible audio quality in exchange for letting Google know your habits used Hangouts. Plus Skype Meetings, etc.

@TheCraigEvans At my previous studio I was always the person who got called into the room (not IT) to help with some of these calls and every time it seemed like the worst of it was WebEx or Skype.

@AnyaSonder @_sadel_ SA should have shut them weeks ago! Apparently numbers are down 70%. Ours’ is going online for term 2 and I think it’ll be term 3 too. Full curriculum delivery over google classroom. My work is all remote now via Skype etc but I’m in IT so a bit easier

@ActivateLearn Wow. Some passionate defence of Microsoft on this thread. I have to agree though that Skype (consumer) has dropped off my apps. I only installed it on my phone again yesterday to give some advice to someone who wanted to run a virtual church service over it.

bit mainly Microsoft's obsession with making you have a Microsoft account is what drove me away. To this day I find it a pain if someone wants me to login to Skype.

@MichaelGillett I can confirm, after not having used my #Kinect with @Skype on the @Xbox One for almost 2 years, that stability has improved greatly! The Kinect no longer shuts itself down requiring a reboot of the system! (knock on wood) #Miraclesdohappen!

I just had the worst experience with @skype. It made me login in @Microsoft 15x. No wonder Gates stepped down. So glad I bought stock in @apple instead of your subpar organization.
