Sunnyvale, California
I guess my issue is, I'm not allowed to work from home, my manager works from home, Skype, and other chat programs' are not infallible. Can this be legal as a means to monitor employee's time?

@ThadMessenger @planetJoseph @DAllison24 Do I know who Bob Bennett is and forgot or what? LOL Seriously though I ain't got time for the cray cray so I'm happy with Broken *** Church System Video Feed. IDK why we can't just skype like everyone else but at least this way they don't hear my snarking.

@TheHadou @discord has done the lord's work by making a service like Raidcall/Teamspeak/Skype all rolled into one. I've been as nitro supporter since day 1 and their service will always be worth that payment! I don't think I've gone a day for years without using it in one way or another.

@motorbikealf During last year when women in abusive homes were locked down. So if they were on a Zoom, Skype call with a friend and can't say anything.. that was how the hand signal came to be.

@AndyCleves_ I think you'll be happy. I thought it was going to cure my issues with recording skype calls and allowing me to integrate phone calls from my iPhone. It just didn't work well from that standpoint.

@ZxSpectROM I do - but it's not my own preferred choice. Meet, discord are pretty good. Skype/teams (same tech?) have some major performance/resource problems. Slack voice is ok for 1 -to-1 but it doesn't hold up well to minor connection drop-outs. I'll use Webex if its needed.

@laurpaige Agreed!!! I’m in software development so EYE KNOW I’d do so much better learning in person or having someone to help out in person....there’s just A LOT happening and getting one on one time via teams/Skype is hard...let alone learning what I need to know. 🙃🙃🙃🙃

@SmileComsNG I renewed my subscription yesterday but no network on my device all throguh the day. Send messages to your customer care, the pop on and disappear like ghost. Send email and Skype messages with no response. Now what is you people's problem? Can't I get the support?

@BossEpoch Webcam quality has been getting noticeably worse in calls and now my DnD group's having many of the problems again that made us switch from Skype to Discord in the first place ☹

@urbaneprofessor You essentially have used it a lot. Microsoft bought them out and it's basically the video service you get in Teams. Over time they're wanting everyone to only use it via the Teams branding (and get rid of the awful Skype interface).

I remember being 15 in a Skype call with my homies doing prank calls... my friend called up an ****** service and at the time, I personally did not know what it was, so I was talking to the person and I was like “so if I order an ****** can they help me cross the street?” LOL

@Skype I can't reach any mobile phones in Australia using your service. Keep getting a heavily accented recorded message saying the lines are not available! What's going on with the service? Please check and advise. Thanks.

@CatchTheseWords Maybe for those that don’t use this service, you should try teams, Google meet, zoom or Skype maybe for something similar?

@cosmicsabre I just think Discord is a great service, and much better than its predecessors (Skype and Teamspeak were garbage), so I'd like to support in some manner of fashion.
