@pumpkinkeely @Tattooed_Mummy They should be, I know smaller ones are doing home checks over zoom or Skype. It’s the home check side that’s causing issues. However they are only placing dogs locally as far as I can tell just in case they need to return to rescue.

Telegram: Group chat is not encrypted, I would say worst platform. Signal: There's issue with backup while changing number. Whatsapp: Technically there is issue with new privacy policy, data safety. Still reliable than telegram. Skype: Premium, reliable and highly recommended 👌

@NMMackenzie Yep that is a problem but this is wrong way to tackle it, could have done interviews on Zoom or Skype and used footage from staff phones

@lolagir98431593 @CJ_isnowblue Can't they do it by Skype or whatever? Seriously up or down votes and a recording secretary can accomplish this.

@SkypeSupport @Microsoft I am trying to reset my mother's Skype password and have been stuck in a Kakfaesque nightmare by your design. I'm sure there is a far more efficient way of doing this but you haven't implemented it, hope I at least can get help this way.

Today on “Maji’s Computer Continues to Attempt to Die”: open Star Stable, Skype will also open on an unresponsive static window, unable to change display settings to match monitor resolution, closing laptop causes forced shut down. In other news I’m in the market for a new PC.

@Skype How long has Skype been in business? 10 years? 15 years? Why cant we watch a TV interview via Skype without it freezing up or fracturing or totally going off air? What kind of a Mickey Mouse service are you?

Is this normal or a problem with the software? 3. It works only with the OBS software and does not work with others. I checked Skype, Zoom and Chime.

@thetomska We did a Skype call in which I interviewed you for a university assignment in 2018. You were very pensive and quiet until I got you talking about how bad you feel for all the problems in the world that my generation is gonna be forced to fix, or die. It was very validating.

“You cannot access this right now” is what my work Skype tells me when I’m not connected to Citrix, and it always feels so aggressive when it pops up in 18pt font. Like did I do something to offend you? Just ask me to sign in let’s settle down here

Izzy doesn’t have Twitter so she won’t see this but as many of you know, she and I met online and, for the first few months, our relationship was long distance. She’s always had trouble sleeping since I’ve known her so we would talk over Skype every night. 1/3

@havocCcmusic yeah I know! It's one of the top choices too and I bet nobody ever clicked on it. I mean, what even happens if you click it? Does it open Skype? Is it a Skype sharing service? Does it call your mom and send the file and you go noooooo

@virginmedia @virginhelp For 9 months we have been having drop outs on broadband the online speed tests show the speeds to be highly variable 8-90mb. The biggest problem is the signal dropping out completely interrupting online video/skype meetings affecting home working abilities.
