@TillaCrowne @FryRsquared This is an evolving problem. Go and look at your Skype/Teams call and hangup icons. Did millennial ever use a phone like that? And then there are media player play/pause/stop/rewind/fforward icons and their origins....

@bartonwillage I guess it blows my mind that people are still stressing the possibility of tech issues at this point. Academics, non-academic hiring departments, and JMCs should be comfortable using Skype/Zoom/WebEx/whatever. They weren't a year ago, sure. But now they should be!

@kocienda I still can’t work out what caused Zoom to be everyone’s default, it’s terrible and wasn’t a household brand until March ‘20, how did Skype, Facetime or Discord not dominate this market

@thexainy How about Skype? I think they have a service where you can get a number that you can be called over the internet.

@joreilly Hi John, do you have any screen recording software or software like Skype that could be interpreted as screen sharing? Even a snipping tool could be causing this error

@lovely84smg @M1Singapore I face similar issue recently with m1 data. Voice calls over Skype, Whatsapp, Facetime or Telegram - all get continuous disruption. Phone restart done. m1 also reset settings last week. Issue persists and raised with 1627. Engineers yet to revert. 😥 #m1dataissue

And yet, the solutions I'm given are "pay for phone service," "try to get phone service from google or skype, etc.," "let us know when you have access to a phone and we'll probably help you." Why ******** would I spend time or money...just so I could give a company my money?

@WhatsappPrivacy I was thinking if WhatsApp has paid service and it has able to call directly mobile number or landline number through WhatsApp as like Skype has different plan based on location and requirements. Now days people are frustrated installing many app for each service one app.

Middle managers: They are OK doing their eight hours of Zoom and Skype calls per day, but they can’t do anything in terms of coaching, mentoring, guiding, developing — assuming they ever did. They are doubling down on “making the trains run” as opposed to anything else.

@TrevPerson i have fought this for so long, since the skype days, and have no idea how to fix it myself. i think windows noticed your mic input is high and lowers it? i wrote an application to lock input volume back in like 2013 because it was such a big issue for my friends and i on skype

@OneCakeLady Hmm. Ok. Not familiar with banana meter. The way I would troubleshoot it is: 1. Undo any recent changes to your setup. 2. Test the mic in simple environment, e.g. a Skype call. If the mic still makes the noise, remove the usb part and use just the 3.5mm jack. Just isolate issues

Glad I’m checking out this Covid WH press briefing because this release-web communications broadcast is absolutely terrible like everyone is dropping you can’t hear a single word “can you hear me now?” It’s like a Skype call with grandma. Things are getting better now. Nice.

@Zipzta @BookwormBean @StillBattsby We are allowed one Skype face to face (15 mins per week) on a weekday so mam does that, I can’t be there always. We took in an old iPad & asked them to help him use it for FaceTime. It’s been offline for weeks, no matter how much we ask them to help.
