I know I have to separate myself from them as best I can for a while at first, but just being close enough to not need to scramble to answer a 2:00 am Skype where I don't know if the news is devastating or hopeful is going to help.

@A_Aspuru_Guzik @ratemyskyperoom I'd give that at least a 9/10. My Skype room wouldn't rate too highly - it's quite busy-looking, but I can't blur out the background because I consider it a public service to let people see my cats. 😺

Note to self. NEVER use a #Chromebook for a zoom/skype meeting. The quality is so bad you're better off using bean cans & a bit of string. Really let down by the quality of the Chromebook. My mobile works better.

@JAGTwitch @OhItsPM Sorry! I didn't realize I was responding to a thread. :\ I am definitely not way smarter than you, but I did work for the GoXLR team a bit and have been in communication with them about the issue since I left (as well as people at Discord, Zoom, Skype, etc.)

@badgirlbarbiex A lot of people still use Skype & pay via PayPal. Using designated cam sites take a lot (or majority) of your earnings & it’s hard to get established on their websites. Some people do WhatsApp video calls but there are issues there with anonymity. I’d say PayPal & Skype

I maintain my innocence and I do not want to be smeared to the general public. I run a business and I need the technology to work. 72 issues on the computer, Skype, XBox, phone, nothing works! I maintain my innocence. Your accusations are WRONG! You are WRONG!

@Words_Unbound I have the same problem, but the opposite direction. Sometimes it feels like half of any given workday of mine is holding back the impulse to tell my coworkers "You don't have to correct typos when we're talking over Skype, I'm not on duty ALL the time."

@holybleed "Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means. Man I’m so horny today. Sorry. I’m sorry. I feel so bad. I just came out

@discord hey Discord, you might need that money to fix your platform. Just saying me and my friends have moved over to Skype for voice chat because of how unstable yours is.

@Daniel_Rubino I need something that 1) starts minimizes to system tray when Windows starts, 2) does video and text between Windows and Android. That pretty much narrowed it down to Skype, Teams, and Signal. Choose Teams because it's new and seems lighter. Hard no to Facebook Messenger.
