For context I was in the UK and the global financial crisis was just kicking off. Guess I was 25 then. The folks at the US forestry service I spoke to were so nice and keen, and had never done a Skype interview before! They wanted me for over a year and I just wasn't ready then.

This is also a Skype/zoom joke. My brain is broken.

@boludmaestro I think it's a lot of things. For one Skype has had many issues around performance. Not to mention the many wrong moves by Microsoft to try and market it as an Enterprise product. Enterprise products don't do well with everyday consumers.

I generally avoid criticizing other developers or their work. But I make an exception in 3 cases: 1) Eclipse as the original Android IDE was terrible. 2) Skype screws up way too frequently 3) The Xcode team is criminally wasteful of resources and cleaning up obsolete files

@baxiabhishek @PranavDixit Hey Skype for Business is really behaving badly. Connect issues... I'm waiting in the lobby and it shows only me and all others find the same thing. Doesn't happen within the same company though. We've switched to Teams and Microsoft is urging biz users to switch.

@iOSMikeySpikey My biggest problem with Skype right now is that when someone else is screensharing it randomly contracts the size of the image, cropping out about 10% of each side of their screen. Sometimes restarting it fixes the problem, sometimes it just keeps doing it.

@cue_bono When they live in Durham, and the family lives in London. I should imagine the relationship is via Skype or similar. You’re clutching at straws. Cummings has made a catastrophic error of judgement. Johnson is defending the indefensible. Public opinion will not tolerate this.

@markrmcqueen @Microsoft @Skype It works but like all MS products the GUI is 10 years behind and prone to crashes. Zoom is fixing its security issues and is a better platform for VTC. Not a sub for Teams to be sure but superior for conferencing
