@lightweight @paulbrislen @billbennettnz That’s more of a behaviour issue, not a technology one, Skype, FaceTime, Jitsi can all be used while driving...if I if I’m on a call with someone who is driving, I end it ASAP...nothing is that urgent

@theboydigital .... But then @Microsoft acquired @Skype and the product quality went down the toilet, leaving a massive need in the market for @zoom_us I reckon the same could happen with @LinkedIn well for those that don't need recruiters and outsource dev studios spamming you.

@xtofl @soylentgraham @ederstoico @rick_west8 I learned that synchronous tutoring provided the most benefit. A quick 1 on 1 skype/hangouts call and a walkthrough why someone uses a given approach, what are the upsides of alternate solutions, or brainstorm to quickly unblock someone stuck on a complex problem

@JermaineJupiter As someone who uses Skype daily for work, I feel like I should have known this. I just never thought of connecting the podcast concept to the service... Lol maybe I’m jus late ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ There’s that too 😂

Just had a phone call with a client via zoom on my home Uber pc. Because of security restrictions he had to use Skype for business . Much worse audio and terrible picture quality on the same setup . Skype for business is awful (at least for external folk)

I'm hoping @Skype #CustomerService will respond to my DM...This has been an ongoing issue for several days now. I'd like to Skype with my Parents on Sunday but at this rate, another week will go by without the ability to do so. Very displeased. #poorcustomerservice

@SkypeSupport As far as I know the Xbox updates regularly and there hasn’t been any changes I have made. I really appreciate the help.

@GilWhitedale @chrislhayes These are data-slinging pocket computers now, and too few people care all that much about voice quality for it to be too much of a priority. And increasingly people voice communicate over IP anyhow -- Skype, FaceTime, Duo, etc -- and that's not a carrier issue.

@fionapup ...if it's _not_ hardware related, you can have a friend (or even me!) log into your box via Team Viewer, and look at the system's behavior and load together. Add voice chat via Skype or Discord, I'd be up for it, and we might find and or even fix stuff. If it doesn't fix itself!
