If the crocodile will be real, these steps will help. Step 1 - Paid\Free VPN Step 2 - Skype Phone number Step 3 - Bind the numbers to your social accounts and your mail if possible @EndSarsResponse could this be advisable for those who want to be actively involved online?

ONCE AGAIN an important interview - this time with a Rabbi who saw the terrible events in Vienna last night - was ruined because @BBCRadio4 insist on using Skype or similar. If it’s important, USE AN OLD FASHIONED PHONE CALL! Infuriating.

I used Skype this past week for the first time in forever, after a 2020 filled with Zoom, and GOOD LORD is Skype a hunk of utter shite. It’s a massive resource hog, both of system resources and bandwidth (I shut down background processes, apps, and cut off access to my wifi)

@BSNLCorporate @CMDBSNL Going for BSNL fibre internet: anyone out there don't go for it, it has frequent request timeout issue, latency is bad. If you are working remotely or into multiplayer gaming don't go for it. U can't do a proper Skype call with a 15mbos plan.

This is a disease that has a huge impact on lower wage service workers. You can’t stock shelves via Zoom. Microsoft Teams wont give Alzheimer patients their meds. Skype won’t pick up the trash. /42

Dont know if it’s just me but the human race is so down at the moment and positivity just doesn’t exist. It’s not just here on our Island but after spending 3 hours on a global Skype call it’s everywhere and is more of a Pandemic than Covid.

@LottieJohn1 @ItisJudge First there was a spark. Then a flame. Then a fire. Then a bonfire. Then (big gap) a lightbulb. Then TV. Then videoconferencing with issues. Then Skype. Then video for everyone. Then chaos. Tech is a beautifully dangerous companion thrust upon the unweary traveller. #hipcounsel

@daisyholder @BBCLondonNews It was on the radio. @EddieNestorMBE just after the 7 o'clock news, although my crappy phone reception meant I didn't make much sense until 7.15. Thanks Eddie & sorry for the broken robot at the start of our interview. Stick to Skype next time eh?

@MikeMikeMed Yes; compared to the BBC, CBC is parochial. Funding is part of the problem but it probably doesn’t explain everything. With Skype and Zoom you can interview people all over the world at no or little cost. Still, having more foreign correspondents on the ground would help a lot.
