Now when I'm watching TV and someone is on Zoom or Skype or some sort of web conferencing platform, I can't help but examine their background. @ratemyskyperoom #roomrater

technically it's possible. but against those pesky terms of service things (explicitly called out by a couple of em, too) can't hurt to try, I guess. but could I be bothered making everyone call me on a 'landline' and asking em all to text me via Skype? prolly not.

Tonight has been a learning experience. Any #Xbox streamers on #Twitch who are having problems getting their cams to be on stream, avoid testing with Skype beforehand. Skype never closes and it hogs the cam feed. Just go straight to Twitch app.

@GoroWentToRehab Wow the nerve of some people 😓. He Skypes you to vent wtf? Can he please get a diary? This is what a diary is for. 🙄 Speaking to him sounds so emotionally draining grr. Can you tell him you’re busy? Or maybe can you disable Skype and say Skype is not working?

@burgessmedia @MicrosoftTeams It's been great! We switched from Skype for Business, which was terrible, and WebEx which was fine...integrated calendar is a huge plus for productivity.

@anitasarkeesian @GamesHotline I have to be honest Anita. The Games hotline is obviously a very cheap service. Providing support through text message only, its 2021 in 3 days, we have phones, video chats, zoom and skype. Why are you only offering a text based service?????

pvp and start talking on skype. Overtime, Skeppy develops feelings for Bad, but Bad comes down with a srs illness (ur choice, fictional or not) and slowly stops texting Skeppy over time. He eventually dies and didn't tell Skeppy so he's left there to wonder what he did

@harleybangbang It would be amazing to sit down and have a beer with you again. Little moments of hope like that keep me motivated. I really felt this post hard. I stopped doing skype calls with my friends because it just fell disingenuous.

@eddie_moser @Barnacules Almost none of those things are the same thing they do not compete with each other that's like saying the telephone company is not a monopoly because there's a Postal Service Twitter Facebook Google search snapchat Tik Tok Skype LinkedIn are all separate non-competing services

@torrance_hanley Me too - I feel like I’m making zero progress (sometimes moving backwards). But we’re doing better than we think. Let me know if I can help in any way, even if it’s just turning on Skype to co-work or to chat about ideas!

I have answered the same question about the same vehicle via email, Skype, Zoom, and 2 Service Now tickets and my boss sent me a text asking me to call the agent (the sane one all 5xs) tomorrow to directly answer them. I- it isn't hard and it's not even something I handle. Oy.

@MOUVENCHY @claytian8 thats not even remotely possible. I don't know how they do it, but I heard of you call and screenshare they can compromise your account somehow. Like control your mouse? Idk. It's ridiculous, I didn't like Skype but we never had these problems when it was more relevant.

@SheriAWilkinson I am 72. This is the first Christmas I have not been with my son and my grandchildren, 15 and 18. I am heartbroken about that. I was hoping to find a safe way to travel, but my son just put his foot down and said no. "We have refrigerator truck morgues here, Mom." SKYPE was OK.
