Your Friendly Neighborhood Disaster
(@MoonlightUmbry) reported
The funny thing about the idea of MS buying Discord is that they'll have to take Skype out back and put it down

@JakeBaldino I mean, look what they did with Skype? Nothing. Microsoft will probably run it to the ground in 4-5 years. Skype should have been THE video conferencing service to use during the lockdown, instead they got beat by the new kid on the block, Zoom

@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.

@SuperBones5000 Skype was something MS bought, mismanaged so bad it basically died, and Microsoft Teams is basically a video chat service

@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

@pixelyunicorn And honestly, I can't fault them on Skype's fate, it was already broken beyond repair before they got it and just needed an actual competitor to finally fall into the grave. Can't say they really _helped_ avert that fate tho

@business I mean if it can regulate the furry **** (redundancy) chats that promulgate Discord, cool. Although I can't help but think they'll treat it as poorly as they did skype

@business The service is about to die a horrible death. Look at Skype

@HBJohnXuandou Maybe they could fix their OS and Skype before jumping ship. Awful software engineers for how many resources they have to throw at things.

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.

@Hayden_G230 Modern Skype isn't that bad I feel. Old Skype used to be riddled with connection issues. At the very least I'm just hoping I can discord call on Xbox while playing a game.

@Amo_Embersign lmao I just ditched my Skype acc when they had a nasty security breach and they kept breaking into it right after I changed my password several times and remember the ads on Skype that slowed the whole thing down?

@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.
