    @miffythegamer They did the same with us, EU citizens. They told us they wanted to bring all immigrants on the same level, but instead of levelling up they levelled down: kept monstrosities like the Skype families, didn't do anything for the Windrush generation, just removed all our rights.

  • JPilgrim16 Chill One (@JPilgrim16) reported

    How support calls feel: "I have this super urgent issue that needs to be fixed now and can't wait" OK can I call you? "mobile is not charged" Skype? "doesn't work" Teams? "don't have it" Email? "can't I'm in meetings all day" OK fine, I'll have to look later "UNACCEPTABLE!"

  • BruceLevenstein Bruce Levenstein (@BruceLevenstein) reported

    The biggest problem with all the Zoom/Skype/Teams work meetings is that people never stop talking.

  • Carlosrecovery Carlos (@Carlosrecovery) reported

    @tarek_etoo @Skype Inbox me to help retrieve your account back

  • cjhickey20 AdaPaliS (@cjhickey20) reported

    @Asensii20 @discord @AmongUsGame Didn't Skype have massive security issues a few years back and they leaked customer info? Pretty sure that happened and Skype as a whole too ka nosedive.

    @mp3michael @rabois Re Skype: Having first hand knowledge, yes it was fantasy and a reckless one at that.... eBay didn't even lock down the IP. Re: Square: As a shareholder, happy with the Utah ILB, less so w/ Tidal and Jay Z on the board. At least it's never dull.

  • ReenaDeen8 Reena Deen (@ReenaDeen8) reported

    @ClaireClaire05 Please don’t give up, there are good counsellors out there. You can also have Skype sessions with online ones . I did online as well because it was too expensive locally to get one specialised in my issue

  • LandryLes Les Landry (@LandryLes) reported

    I need help with Skype... Can someone PLEASE message me... This is VERY IMPORTANT.

  • G94288979 Gem (@G94288979) reported

    @DragonAndTheFox It can also lead to kidney issues if someone is forced to "hold it in" or gets into the bad habit. My right kidney does not function well so I just go when I need to. I'm not screwing around with my health because of a zoom/skype/teams meeting.

  • _sid_1998 Saz (@_sid_1998) reported

    falling down the stairs while on skype with the lads is a real low for me rn ngl

  • Plastically_Eve PSA: #NoUnityWithoutJustice & #WashYourHands (@Plastically_Eve) reported

    @patriottakes "Early days"? 2003 (Myspace) and 2007 (Tumbler) are not "early days". My dad was emailing back in 94 and my mom started using ICQ in 98. These are two people so tech savvy, they had trouble figuring out how to operate Skype.

  • Charlie56768595 Morals & Mischief 🗣🇺🇸 (@Charlie56768595) reported

    @Breaking911 Biden's a lot smarter about that than his son, but there are tapes. INTERVIEWEE: Hunter supposedly had some of them. But there are videos that he's made. There are Skype videos where it's him but it's from here down with a child where he's talking to someone & you can't see face

  • wowkayleigh k (@wowkayleigh) reported

    the only thing i want is to be able to login to my old skype account,,,, its just an itch i have so bad

  • Lilin_VDaemon Kanashibari Lilin 🛏「VTuberEN」 (@Lilin_VDaemon) reported

    22. Do people still use Skype? I'll take Discord, even though I'm terrible at checking it!

  • paulm19822012 Paul McGee M0WNU (@paulm19822012) reported from Richmond, England

    Now I am confused, how does blocking someone on Skype to address drama that you cause yourself work? Would it not be better to not block the sensible party and at least talk to them in a civilised manner? Discussion works better than hiding with your problems

    @Skype I'm locked out of my account, password doesn't work, and despite having emails from Skype to my email address, Skype says it doesn't recognize the address. Account recovery isn't working and I can't reach a human. PMed you yesterday, no response...please help.

    @XboxSupport Skype keeps on crashing on both of my XSX consoles, I've tried a full factory reset but it still occurs. The Xbox UI slowly becomes unresponsive before the app crashes and occasionally the console shuts itself down.

  • scmresearcher Andreas Wieland (@scmresearcher) reported

    @chrschwaegerl I can't remember a single Skype connection with not at least one minor glitch.

  • TommyCadle Tomás Martins (@TommyCadle) reported

    @ChristianSelig from my experience, these virtual webcams usually don’t work with Apple software (FaceTime, Skype, Photo Booth…) and some third-party ones, but I had no problems with Zoom or Chrome. To use on these don’t work, I guess you’ll need some sort of USB-HDMI capture card

  • janeyaitken janeaitken (@janeyaitken) reported

    @virginmedia Will do. Skype still advises 'chat room access may be limited dye to an outage ' This rarely goes away.
