    @Mynxee i thought of you recently when reading on the r/starlink reddit the last time we talked you had satellite internet and it was on a skype call and the delay was terrible.

  • LuSchmoo Lu (@LuSchmoo) reported

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

  • RiboGuy manny ares (@RiboGuy) reported

    @HarmitMalik Was an outside member on an international defense via Skype in 2015 - would do again, do not see a problem here, except for the champagne part.

  • IMGibbon I.M.Gibbon (@IMGibbon) reported

    does skype ever NOT need to install updates? does it even properly live on the computer or does it pull down a fresh copy every time you try to open it?

  • zweiwegpfand Adrian🦒 (@zweiwegpfand) reported

    @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 ☹

  • 30_Helens ThirtyHelens (@30_Helens) reported

    I know this is actually a ******* terrible idea but sometimes it feels like internet fights should be done over skype so that you can say **** to each other's faces

  • MaxClyde_ Maximilian Clyde (@MaxClyde_) reported

    @Etisalat_Care @etisalat why did you choose to keep Totok unblocked but continue to block every single other service? Why can't we Facebook or WhatsApp call? Or Skype? We're in 2021. It makes no sense for only Totok, the unknown app with security/privacy concerns, to work.

  • TSKNew999 New999/Xindictive (@TSKNew999) reported

    @popkornkat Literally sat there all day and night once i returned from university to deal with her. It wasn't fun, was very anxiety heavy. I truly believe she's learnt her lesson after hearing how depressed and down she was from the audio files she sent to me ALOT on Skype.

  • theMattMarr Matt Marr (@theMattMarr) reported

    @SkypeSupport help! Your service is being used for a TDSO attack from someone repeatedly harassing my business with calls. How do I fix this? Can I talk to someone? Please help.

  • PizzaResa Resa Pizza | ONLYFANS IN BIO✨ (@PizzaResa) reported

    Stop asking for meetups. Stop asking for race play. Stop asking for Skype or my personal # for FT. I’m a broken record at this point.

  • CurtisMileena Jizzy Pinkman (@CurtisMileena) reported

    Knowing that I have a lot of problems and little time, one bloody bastard asked me to schedule a Skype show with me for Friday night. Of course, I made time. And I wrote to him in the afternoon. And he replied "he still doesn't know if he can today" And then he just started

  • evilchangeling grissina (@evilchangeling) reported

    the problem Is that I need someone to be physically with me and hold my hand when I write academic emails which is a problem. but maybe if I skype call my best friend in the mean time...

  • HEINSLERJAN Janet Heinsler (@HEINSLERJAN) reported

    Oh Crap! My computer camera is not working this morning. Oh My how will I skype and zoom?

  • XionTheDark Xion Archaeus (@XionTheDark) reported

    My opinion on the matter with Kero is I don't ******* know. Police didn't put him to prison after taking his tech with the investigation, Skype messages is proven to be faked, and people need to chill ******** down and hear the other side before coming to conclusions.
