  • RichGale82 Richard Gale (@RichGale82) reported

    @Ron_Fleasley @AndieDelicacy Andie never wanted to Skype. It was a big issue even though I said I was fine with it. I was sometimes going on internet websites to watch other people Skype. Zoom too. Got a WhatsApp magazine from a specialist shop. Seedy.

  • ThatNeilMartin Prof Neil Martin (@ThatNeilMartin) reported

    @banalyst For their teaching- and we've still been teaching, and doing more of it and in a way that supports students. I've had so many Skype tutorials, they've virtually moved in. Rents is a separate issue (and not part of tuition fees)

  • stew_sc stew (@stew_sc) reported

    @welshmadam Oh. He needs a slap then. Used to have a Greek lodger who’d Skype like he was shouting for help from an abandoned well. He lasted 3 months before I’d had enough!

  • Niecy_NoNash Big Niec (@Niecy_NoNash) reported

    So I just had a meeting with my supervisor via Skype. She said even though were working from home our phones should be face down. Lol no.

  • jeffinitelyjeff jeff “irregardless defender” ruberg (@jeffinitelyjeff) reported

    I've had so many recording issues (wrong input, very echo-y room, other side of the call picked up on mic, etc) and every time skype's auto processed recording was 10x better than any fix I was able to do by struggling with fancy, expensive tools for hours

  • Schwahn_ Schwahn | BLM | TRAHR (@Schwahn_) reported from Anchorage Municipality, Alaska

    When you hit the "X" on a window, the program should close and shut down. I have only encountered it a few times. But there are some applications that treat the X like it is the minimize button. - Skype - Twitch Soundtrack **** programs that do this.

  • Kar_melo Karmelo (@Kar_melo) reported

    I’m legitimately learned how to be a doctor ONLINE. via Skype and zoom. Isn’t that wild? half of my day is spent email questions to my profs or handling technical issues. The skill of diagnosis comes secondary and IM STILL PAYING FULL PRICE jokes on me. El oh el.

    @coconutIatte There is a person on here that frequents ads for proana coaches, he asks for the Skype of people promising to help them ❌- Tw ahead I’ve heard from a few victims of him that he’ll prompt them to undress infront of him and manipulate them. It’s sickening 😕

  • JamesCraigmyle James Craigmyle (@JamesCraigmyle) reported

    @alk2001 @Skype @zoom_us It’s not when they are young that they show the issues from jumping and acting out of control. It’s when they get older and they can’t get around

    These days, seems like I only login to Skype to send "Hello world" to my mobile in order to prevent my credit from expiring.

  • seesthedanger SteveO (@seesthedanger) reported

    @TriciaBarker49 @JohnCCoupar Yes and right away I found it more user friendly than Skype which I used a lot a decade ago. I got my desktop camera going but the picture is awful and I can't find out how to fix it. I'm using Windows 10.

    @JamesCraigmyle @Skype @zoom_us I just said to my son that I wish we could have a trainer come to the house! This may be the next best thing seeing as I don’t live near you. Need help with my very needy 1 year old.

  • BoneJeni Bone(anti-fascist)Jeni (@BoneJeni) reported

    @LesStonehouse Who are they? My Grey Boomer parents (80s) use their PC (albeit basically) and communicate with family around the world via Skype. They CAN do better, they're just comfortable with Jones, Bolt et al - which is the issue.
