  • blessedorkirst Kirsten (@blessedorkirst) reported

    Three separate people can call me at once at work with Skype, Microsoft Teams and my phone. I LOVE that for me. Perfect system, no issues.

  • ricsofttvk Richard (@ricsofttvk) reported

    @SKYserves what's with the restricted service? Unable to connect to Skype, a lot of websites and apps not loading. Works fine if I enable VPN. Please fix ASAP, it's greatly affecting my work. No reply to my DM as well.

  • StacyRalph2 Stacy Ralph (@StacyRalph2) reported

    @tommangan @LSchmitt_TAAWTS Yes, I’ve seen it which is why I turned down staff offers. Global companies I freelanced for had meetings scheduled with teams in Singapore, Spain, etc., staff had to attend via Skype at all hours. I got paid for my extra time. They got same raise and crappy bonus every year.

    @MicrosoftTeams , @Microsoft hi MS, I am facing many issues while using TEAMS. I feel it is very substandard product released by MS. Skype for business was superior product u withdraw. Do something.

  • subiectiv Alex (@subiectiv) reported

    Hey Mac people, got an issue with my LG Ultrafine camera, it stopped appearing in facetime/skype/etc. options after some macOS update. Display and sound work fine, no webcam though. “sudo killall VDCAssistant” doesn’t fix it. Any ideas? cc @AppleSupport

  • grobmeier Christian Grobmeier (@grobmeier) reported

    OK my 2019 MPB gets one last chance. I upgraded to Big Sur. Let's hope it performs better after - again - being unable to Skype today. If it's not working I swear I throw it out the window

  • DuskyPinkBloss PinkCherryBlossom (@DuskyPinkBloss) reported

    @adamfare1996 Completely understandable! They need to seriously look at their lack of staff; that is not your problem. You should definitely be offered something OOA. Would you be able to access help over Skype etc?

  • Ebdulmomen1 Ebdulmomen Ahmed (@Ebdulmomen1) reported

    @shkoagha In my experience Skype has been very inconsistent, it’s riddled with network connectivity and database connection issues, it used to be the best though, but these days i don’t really think it is anywhere near zoom or google meet

  • surroundgatari SURROUNDGATARI (@surroundgatari) reported

    @RTVSLOVENIJA lmfao samsung down rough looking like Skype these days

  • spinnetho Thomas juhl Olesen (@spinnetho) reported

    Anybody else experiencing Outlook mobile swtiching to SKYPE-meeting, as default provider instead of Teams after Mondays issues in Azure ? @MicrosoftTeams

  • ryuugonana 竜後ナナ💵🐲 MILFY MANGLERS『KAITEKI LIVE 』 (@ryuugonana) reported

    @TheGreatKaitsu Back during Skype Era S*ndy had used that word in a private call when referring to Natii when I told her I wasnt interested in her and was dating Natii. She called her that word and at the time I didnt know it was even derrogatory until later down the road so it *is* possible.

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    4, 12/13 years ago in the early days of Spotify, there literally was no one we could get advice from apart from the folks at Skype, however @nzennstrom and co were busy building a competing music service of their own called Rdio.

    Lol I set up a Skype number just so I could register a number other than the number I’m trying to move to linemo and immediately got a JavaScript error message saying they don’t accept 050 numbers 🙃

  • Ursus2600 Ursus (@Ursus2600) reported

    @Microsoft Instead of an apology for the #Teams outage, can you provide a on premise solution for a Hybrid approach? I want to switch from Skype for business, but it is hard to migrate to a cloud service that has an annual outage without a failover solution. #HybridCloud
