If #Apple brought #imessage to #Android it would close down any new #google #rcs play overnight. Might even kill #skype and others. @TechAltar

@zorm @jmwolfinbarger I’m not worried about the camera. It’s about the web server that bypasses system security features and sticks around after deleting the app that is the issue. And I don’t use Skype or Hangouts either 😁

I NEVER log off of my Skype because I have seizures, so it makes it easier to contact my friends just on case. I do that because I get confused and my memory goes at the time so it makes it easier and faster to get a hold of someone. Get CONFUSED so I won't forget my login info.

We have tried contacting the reviews to ask if we can check his system via Skype or other to identify the problem but with no help. Even big companies sometimes needs to check the users system to identify the problem.

@magrom @stefanotempesta @Outlook @Skype @SkypeBusiness @MicrosoftTeams if that still does not work, you need to figure out what's broken. I personally tend to just removing the registry entries at the addins hive. The procedure mentioned in the last tweets worked for me at customers, I was faced with migrating @SkypeBusiness to @MicrosoftTeams

I NEVER log off my Skype because I have seizures. Makes it faster to contact and not having to worry about my login information. Get confused and my memory gets shot so it makes it to where I don't have to try and remember my login information.

@SkypeSupport Thanks for getting back. The chat at your link worked, unlike the one I found on the Skype website, and I had a good discussion with your tech, but my problem isn’t fixed yet. Basically, all hell broke loose after I changed the credit card I subscribe with.

@thenanaaba If they don't take care we would even relocate them to a smaller one and cut the numbers down... Those who don't get space can join via conference phones and Skype 🙄

Skype won’t work, google calendar is dead, and my office WiFi is down. I think it’s time to leave. It’s basically a matter of national security at this point.

@robdylan Agree that they’re late to the game, but I think the majority of apps I currently use only support first party login: Skype, Facebook, Reddit, slack, bbc. I guess it depends on the size of user base - the decision probably disproportionately affects smaller apps.

if i was the @Windows team i'd be telling the @Skype team to fix their app and stop hurting overall system performance, not making it harder to turn the app off. please don't @ me if your clever solution to my problem is for me to not use windows.

@leimlion Yeah I just installed it for some fun. Bringing back memories. It's the only thing I could ever use again since Microsoft locked me out of my own Hotmail account and refused to let me back in unless I paid for a subscription service. I lost access to my Skype & Messenger.

Be careful switching to Teams from a normal phone system. @Microsoft BROKE our Skype for business call queues and we have to pay $80 per month for licenses for CALL QUEUES until they fix it in July. VERY poor implementation.

My Skype status at work is "Ugly bag of mostly water" and I was told that it makes at least one person uncomfortable. I suggested they watch more Star Trek but that didn't help.

@buzzthecat1 I don't know yet, probably not. It's fine though as a practice run. They had technical problems with their Skype from the start, and as it was a Tuesday 8:30am, no time to fix them. I met with an agency on Thursday, uploaded a higher quality resume.
