  • DynoStorm DynoStorm 🇬🇧 (@DynoStorm) reported

    I manually install over 140 certificates to get my SSL to connect. Still can't get it to click. Can't license my software or login to skype natively. Ugh, out of all the things to go wrong.

  • PaulLamberti Paul (@PaulLamberti) reported

    @Morrison how's it worse? i've had about as many issues with it in my two (three?) years of using it as i did with skype for business in a week.

  • matt4dsaviour Matthew O. F. (@matt4dsaviour) reported

    @AirtelNigeria I just observed something funny. I can't download nor upload documents or images on my Skype. My colleague is also having similar issue on your network. When I switched to another network, it works fine. Can you look into this please?

  • 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.

  • ArunKNairr 𝓐𝓻𝓾𝓷 𝓝𝓪𝓲𝓻 (@ArunKNairr) reported

    @malpani It's because instead of quickly fixing the underlying issues, Microsoft spent years trying to redesign Skype. Nokia did the same mistake earlier when they chose Windows Phone because it feared Samsung would 'come to dominate Android'

  • SigriddK Sigrid de Kaste (@SigriddK) reported

    HELP - HELP - HELP @Microsoft WHY am I asked EVERY time I want to log in - to CHANGE my password? WHY does my skype password no longer work every time I change the Microsoft Office password? They used to always be separate passwords?

  • philurich Phil Urich (@philurich) reported from Edmonton, Alberta

    @GrahamB47 @coopercooperco Another rebrand of what was at least at some point Skype For Business, they're constantly chasing whatever the hot new office communications service is so constantly rebranding, but also terrible yet widely adopted because it's Microsoft

  • Happy_Tabby Tabby (@Happy_Tabby) reported

    Four days off, can’t do anything or go anywhere, but 4 days not working with teams, zoom, Skype, emails, work mobile. Bliss. Got get your ‘ups’ from somewhere.

  • Amrit_Maghera Amrit Maghera (@Amrit_Maghera) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I would need to dm you with details. In short I’m trying to sort out technical issues for my flat in London via a Skype call as I’m in America. Appreciate any help

  • Raje5hReddy Rajesh Reddy 🇮🇳 (@Raje5hReddy) reported

    @Skype your support is of such high quality that I get redirected to the same page where I raised a case to fix my issue.

  • miyaowmiyaow miyaow (@miyaowmiyaow) reported

    @MA199763554687 @inyeoplove That’s all High School progress that was thrown away when he went to the US. Why would be physicaly isolated be a problem. Skype, zoom, video calls, its easy to still be connected to everyone but his habits kicks in, he didn’t learn, and he chose to isolate himself.

  • cerealisle dazai lovebot (@cerealisle) reported

    i’ll never forget when my friends and i had a 140 hour skype call going and right in the middle of a one in the quiver game everything went silent & we couldn’t hear anyone nor fix it so we had to end the call </3

  • Nican Nican (@Nican) reported

    @Syfaro I remember when I use to have issues because ******* Skype would bind to port 80.

  • LeonardTPants Norm Breaker (@LeonardTPants) reported

    @Morrison My work has both (!) and everyone still uses Skype because it's easier than the new fancy Teams. Nobody can find anything on Teams. It has three different places to save files. Also why do all MSFT products have terrible names?

  • gezafisch Evan (@gezafisch) reported

    @Morrison Nope, Skype for business is sooo bad. Not having conversation history easily accessible within the app is my main problem with it. Otherwise, the layout of teams is so much easier to use daily. Only real problem with teams is overall performance and searches are kinda bad.
