@SalameleonAD @conejitogigante I don't think it's going to go the way of Skype; as Conejito's mentioned, very different folks running MSFT now, and they're more likely to treat it like GitHub. I *doubt* they'll kill the standalone service, either; Discord's consciously broadened past gamers recently.

@simplygastly Well as far as I am aware skype is doing pretty well, it's tech is being used access all of MS and it's a very popular Customizable service for Telepresence in the business industry also Teams = Skype v2 but not named so.

@KevinKoolxHalo @Hayden_G230 Actually Skype is pretty well integrated with Xbox and it's a very good alternative whenever party chat is down or having issues. But yeah Skype could've been so much more.

the biggest problem with alternatives is that you absolutely need a ton more useful features that the thing you're making an alternative for doesn't have (like discord compared to skype) or else it will be irrelevant

@discord i just heard about the proposition by Microsoft to buy you out. as a long time user of discord and former user of skype there is no comparison as to how much better discord is. please for the love of everything good and all of us users turn Microsoft down! save discord!

@Microsoft buying @Discord probably wouldn't be the end of the world but they have an awful track record with this stuff. In 2011 Microsoft bought Skype and integrated it into their own popular chat service (MSN Messenger). Skype went downhill after that and its a joke now.

@surfacage But they would exactly do that. Its exactly what happened to skype, they tried to homegenize it without fixing fundemental problems. And we already have MS Teams its called Slack

@_MissClick_ TERRIBLE. I was part of Discord’s Beta in 2014. The big allure is that it wasn’t Skype. Skype...that Microsoft owned. Then again, it really seems like Discord as a whole has lost touch with its community in general. Other Apps like @teamguilded look more appealing each day.
