@LenaAxios /me stares at Skype... Like even ignoring what they did the Mixer, they have a service that worked the same way, and they butchered it.

@PixelMetal @Romudeth Only problem i have had is due to how our VPN works. If I don't restart Teams after reconnecting it gets upset, but so does Outlook and Skype.

@xx_hannah_xx Yeah, unpopular opinion, but I think moving Discord to Azure and dealing with all the problems that crop up might mean more stability for the service in the long term. If I had to trust my life Skype or Discord to send a message, it would be Skype.

@business So what you are saying is they want to ruin it like they did Skype (Mixer and literally every 3rd party thing they devour). Yeah, no. This better not pass or happen. Microsoft could at the very least attempt to fix Skype first before trying this monopolizing bullshit.

@Jamalrus Interesting perspective for sure, maybe it's just because I'm more on the Google suite side of things? Tbh my experiences with M365 haven't been the best - and the issues I've always had with Skype back in the day probs just give me the bad impression of Msft

@Lonely_Fricker I swear skype was a paid service but I'm probably just an idiot (so nothing out of the ordinary tbh)

@yourcompanionAI i guess at least theyre the least likely to do excessively weird **** with it beyond use it to supplant skype and maybe force microsoft accounts for login like theyre working on doing with java!mc

@stroughtonsmith My recent experience with video calling on Skype made me nostalgic about 15 years ago. The call quality is just the same. Laggy, pixelated, terrible voice quality.

@TravisHymas @EFF Skype is the worst to use for communication in a job. It's so outdated and just terrible.

@business nothing imminent, just initial talks theres also a chance Discord could go public MSFT owns Skype. failed & shut down Mixer. and are now interested in Discord. interesting to see how the situation develops ...How do you feel about this?

@SignpostMarv That's the only upside to this. Microsoft butchered Skype so bad that Discord became as popular as it is because of how bad Skype got to use. They just can't help trying to remake MSN messenger, bugs and all

@business Oh god no. We left Skype for Discord because Microsoft ****** it up in the first place, don't make a god damned mess of a program that was literally made to be the ANTITHESIS of what your service is.

(@Royameadow) reported
Skype and Discord merging together could have the potential of fixing select issues with both platforms though: I don't like the Timed Limitations on some Discord Servers that forces you to be a Twitch or Patreon subscriber, and Call Recording on Skype had been trash for years.

@discord Do not accept Microsoft's offer. They killed skype already and we moved over to your service for that EXACT REASON.
