@malpani It's because instead of quickly fixing the underlying issues, Microsoft spent years trying to redesign Skype. Nokia did the same mistake earlier when they chose Windows Phone because it feared Samsung would 'come to dominate Android'

@Liam_Baxter31 We were still both in the UK, so really sorry I’m probably not much help. We did spend a fortune travelling to see each other and spoke at least once a day on the phone or Skype. Other than staying busy is important (otherwise I’d mope).

@Morrison Nope, Skype for business is sooo bad. Not having conversation history easily accessible within the app is my main problem with it. Otherwise, the layout of teams is so much easier to use daily. Only real problem with teams is overall performance and searches are kinda bad.

@BeirutiBrit Urgh, I remember this nonsense. Spending hours of Skype credit on the phone to my bank trying to explain that their verification texts would definitely not arrive. They had literally no way of thinking around that problem because the system was the system.

@BeckBourdeau @maziehirono Ok then how about this? This bill would make it financially untenable to operate an online service. You realize how broad harassment is? Discord. Gone. Skype. Gone. Blogs. Gone. This bill would require active monitoring of every since message, call, post, and image online.

@AirtelNigeria I just observed something funny. I can't download nor upload documents or images on my Skype. My colleague is also having similar issue on your network. When I switched to another network, it works fine. Can you look into this please?

Four days off, can’t do anything or go anywhere, but 4 days not working with teams, zoom, Skype, emails, work mobile. Bliss. Got get your ‘ups’ from somewhere.

@Morrison My work has both (!) and everyone still uses Skype because it's easier than the new fancy Teams. Nobody can find anything on Teams. It has three different places to save files. Also why do all MSFT products have terrible names?

@MA199763554687 @inyeoplove That’s all High School progress that was thrown away when he went to the US. Why would be physicaly isolated be a problem. Skype, zoom, video calls, its easy to still be connected to everyone but his habits kicks in, he didn’t learn, and he chose to isolate himself.

@studioanisa Had no idea this was actually a problem, I thought "not everything can be a disorder, I need to focus more". But I've wanted to work with a friend by Skype or something, lately, to see if it can help with my focus. I Will try the "study with me video" solution.

Chat function on Skype seems to be down...I can make & receive calls, but messages I'm sending aren't going. Just me, I guess? Wonder what's up with that...

I manually install over 140 certificates to get my SSL to connect. Still can't get it to click. Can't license my software or login to skype natively. Ugh, out of all the things to go wrong.

@TheJimCornette Computers are frustrating and Skype has always caused issues. If you need assistance, I can remote into the computer and install Microsoft Teams, which has given me far less issues. Good luck Jim, I hope that this storm will pass soon.

@myGovau I live in the Uk and can’t access my old MyGov account. I have created a new account though can’t link the ATO to it as I don’t have access to the right documents (sent to old MyGov account). I have tried to call the helpline via Skype but there is now answer. Help!

This is what I find so frustrating about Mississauga's municipal wifi network: I can get it in so many random places, but because it's so locked down (80 & 443, no weird stuff) it's basically unusable. No SIP, no Skype, no Telegram, no weird stuff. What a waste. 😔

@bristol_pip Ashley. The issue requires one on one handling and follow through to completion. (It really is that bad.) You'll have to excuse me ages to reply. If I can manage an abstract I can do a skype. Otherwise the trauma gets to me. It's a horror show.

@Skype your support is of such high quality that I get redirected to the same page where I raised a case to fix my issue.
