  • whywedontgame magic h8-ball (@whywedontgame) reported

    We stopped gaming because Extra Horny Bard and Unnecessary Fireball Sorcerer stopped talking. Because exploration being too slow. It all went down on Skype.

  • ImNspire Synergy Nspire (@ImNspire) reported

    Discord down? who wants to redownload skype?

  • ollybits Ollybits (Olivia) - 🎨Pixel Art Painter (@ollybits) reported

    @CeddyOrNot Depending on the programs you have on the pc, it can **** with your settings. I’ve seen issues where a Skype update for example messes up your input settings even when you didn’t manually update or open the programs. It’s stupid.

    @HarbourHrbr Discord down aye man skype looking real usable atm

  • iObeyMen ServantOfMen (@iObeyMen) reported

    @notyouravgjoe86 Most of my service is to men I connected with locally or with Twitter men but I speak via Skype etc. I just sometimes think my addiction to what I see on Twitter takes away from my life in ways I think could be better spent elsewhere.

  • 6enadryl don (@6enadryl) reported

    Smh might have to act like its 2007 and use skype cuz discord down 🙄🙄

  • EvilJackCarver Andreas 🔻 rm -rf /45/ (@EvilJackCarver) reported

    @zilchfox I thought they shut MSNM down a couple of years after merging it with Skype?

  • DewayneLehman DeWayne Lehman (@DewayneLehman) reported

    @jeffjarvis is right. Journalism had simply failed to innovate on new revenue models. They just wanted a better mail subscription service. It's like AT&T blaming Skype because they sat insulated for 70 years without innovating. BTW... Did you know...

  • arealpup ♡ T R E X ! ◖⚆ᴥ⚆◗ comms open (@arealpup) reported

  • jaegerish jae🧃 (@jaegerish) reported

  • jamesgibbon James Gibbon (@jamesgibbon) reported

    @ben_watt Feel guilty when I read posts like these, because I honestly don't feel locked down. Still work from home, still have my guitars, computer, etc. Learning to play jazz over Skype. Still getting out and doing miles on a bike. I still have the old normal, hope you do too soon.

  • SW_SUPPORT_PAGE Tips, Tricks + Advice For Onlyfans + More ♥️ (@SW_SUPPORT_PAGE) reported

    Side note- I mentioned above that onlyfans dislikes the advertisement of other sites or apps, please use caution advertising Snapchat, Skype, clip sites/other 18+ sites etc. I haven’t (yet) had an issue with an allmylinks link in my OF bio under the website section.

  • OilersBlues #FreeMcDavid (@OilersBlues) reported

    @Kratzey16 @ByMHarrington When Ralph was coach of the Oilers, he asked management to bring in an associate to help, and during that interview for an associate, they interviewed Dallas Eakins. Ralph was then fired on Skype for reasons, and was never given a fair shake.

  • Son0fMogh Jesse Shoghi (@Son0fMogh) reported

    Yo now discords down? Have to go back to skype :( #DiscordServer

  • extremelypanda space ***** (@extremelypanda) reported

    @M3_Hammer skype was always very wonky in that you had to connect to the internet, synchronize, and load a whole bunch of old chats every time you logged in from a new device.. like, slowly, and then you would still miss a msg here and there due to connection issues.. tldr i dont miss skype

  • doucelassie Julie (@doucelassie) reported

    @AshleeMBoyer @Imani_Barbarin Yes, I use Webex, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, and Facebook Messenger with no tech issues. Best captions are on Zoom.

  • not_so_funny not_so_funny (@not_so_funny) reported

    Does anyone have issues with Skype? For the last two days cannot connect to others 😭

  • thezer0cool thezer0cool (@thezer0cool) reported

    For Skype users. Anyone have login issues?

  • theresatruth Theresa (@theresatruth) reported

    @JordanSekulow The couple who passed away from Covid was not Janice Dean's Parents, they were her Inlaws! Also, we at times couldn't hear what Than was saying. The Skype Connection was cutting out & garbled at times. Not sure if you heard all those problems with his speaking or not. Great show!

  • restless_haze Aitchaywy Elliwhy (@restless_haze) reported

    This is also a guy who flat out refused to use Skype chat on our first meeting despite my stating my being hugely uncomfortable with video chat straight away. Previous advisor working for same service had no issue with it.

  • nashcheez Abinash Shaw (@nashcheez) reported

    @Microsoft We are having trouble connecting to the server. If this continues, please contact your support team - Skype for Business

  • leviathan0070 Marie / Levi (@leviathan0070) reported

    Bruh my friends and I were in discord when it went down and we legit started a zoom room instead Skype? I don’t even know her

  • ironbean23 bean (@ironbean23) reported

    the problem is he went ahead and emailed our tw client that "hey we have a new engr we would like you to meet, this engr is independent and can work with minimal guidance" WHEN I SPECIFICALLY SAID IN MY SKYPE MESSAGE THE OPPOSITE THING I SAID THEY STILL CAN NOT WORK INDEPENDENTLY

  • dlag1995 Dan Lagnado (@dlag1995) reported

    Needs to be addressed how Skype fumbled the bag on this pandemic. Had the ball at the 20 yard line and yet Zoom chased them down and forced the fumble before the goal line

  • Resnauv Resnauv 🦝 (@Resnauv) reported

    In addition to replacing Teamspeak and Skype, @Discord is also replacing subreddits, Facebook groups, and message boards. Kind of hard to keep a server list under 100 these days, but that's the max. Anybody else having issues staying under 100?

  • _Sam_Owens Corner-Desk (@_Sam_Owens) reported

    discord down guess I'll Skype

  • blywallentine 🌾 bly wallentine 🌾 (@blywallentine) reported

    the Skype ringtone sounds like a postal service song

  • crumbcake_ crumbcake (@crumbcake_) reported

    @larsmb @groby Sound was never a problem for me until I tried to run Skype/teams. At that point the audio stack transcend the boundaries of mortal understanding and let out a shreak that could shatter bones.

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    Im a nonthreatening feminist boy, come talk to me on Skype! talk to me on skype about your problems as a woman i sympathize i’m taking womens studies. I took women’s studies I know what ‘systematic’ means.
