    It's nearly 4:30. MOST people have already logged off, per Skype, but I'm going to sit at this computer until 5pm and then I'm shutting it down for NINE DAYS a;skdfja;ldskjfa;s ...and then will go into my living room and hop on my other computer. BUT THAT'S ENTIRELY DIFFERENT.

    If we’re making this migration from Skype to Teams, we need to fix the capability to see online statuses in Outlook.

    @ThunderAngel454 Hi there - While our phone support is limited, that typically happens if you're calling from a third party relay service such as Skype or Google voice. Feel free to DM us more info about what's going on so we can help or get you to the right place. ~Mikayla

  • bennettm0207 justbeingme (@bennettm0207) reported

    @regina74 What high expectation they UK has of a 1 year old. Have the Brits not heard of Skype? Zoom? The problem here is they don't know every move of Harry and Meghan because no one can leak anything about them. They are far removed from the hungry BM

  • LRTpei Truth Fact & Dash of Opinion (@LRTpei) reported

    @CTVNews this traitor could just use Skype Teams fb live and save money time and resources - the scamdemic CRIME Minister would never miss an opportunity to skip down those stairs to his paid audience

  • bitoclass Paul #DistantSocialising (@bitoclass) reported

    Finally shutting down my work computer now means I will never again see a Skype For Business chat window with @HG_Harper on it, but it also means I'm on leave for more than a day (nearly two weeks!) for the first time since March, so it's impossible to say if it's bad or not

  • StreamOfRon #RONDACTED (@StreamOfRon) reported

    @jayholler @Google Still leaps and bounds ahead of Skype for business. And before you point out meet: last I looked it uses the Skype for business backend to set up meetings and suffers from some of the same problems as a result.

  • itsljvaughn LJ Vaughn is writing sexy spies 👞 (@itsljvaughn) reported

    I was cleaning myself up enough to make the next Skype call and I suddenly realized my entire afternoon has just been wiping away tears and calming myself down enough to not sound like I was just sobbing during my next work meeting and... yeah. That's the whole mood right now.

  • Queen_Eden_99 Eden Bashir (@Queen_Eden_99) reported

    There are so many other small issues but these are the biggest two. @Skype please please please resolve them and give us another update.

  • Paestrol Paoes TRol (@Paestrol) reported

    In-person meetings help foster relationships in a way that Skype or conference calls often do not.

  • ukcloudpro Steve Chambers (@ukcloudpro) reported

    @emmakennytv My kids are 200 miles away in Scotland with a "difficult" ex. Thru not being able to see them, and with her turning skype video off and other shenanigans, one kid no longer speaks with me and the other is like a zombie. Terrible.

    Last I checked I don't remember a massive surge of problems related to minors being groomed when Skype was the thing to use

    @JungleMaiden ((The entirety of México skipped out on Skype era and so many barely use Discord, they stay in Facebook and WhatsApp Messenger stuff. It is not really anything bad.)) ((Not really a problem, it is your choice if you wanna do it or not.))

  • jthake Jeremy (@jthake) reported

    @jouniheikniemi @JussiRoine @sassdawe I’ve experienced the same thing on signal. I also trust Microsoft more as a platform than something like this too. Making a switch is def the biggest problem here. That’s why I think if you said “hey Skype is back, join me here” would make sense.
