@ignitionCountry NY is shut down except for essential businesses. I have to do my music by Skype. And my day job is on limited access as we are essential but need social distancing.

@JonathanLegge2 @queersicle Odd. I've never had that issue. Skype is still around. They just missed out honeslty. They have now launched group calls though.

@marklevy2gb Here here. Anyone with concerns about privacy or tracking should also jump off Twitter, Facebook, Zoom, Skype, or any Google service, and stay home.

@GayRobot_ @macolon2 @SkypeBusiness Yes, I know. They’re contract with my work is for Skype (when moved away from Teams). Regardless, they have a product that they’re still in charge of but not doing anything about it. This is one of my many issues w/ Microsoft.

@MichelleKHarper Ironically, consumer Skype is pretty good as a (albeit basic) chat service - but Skype for Business is simply unusable and grounded in legacy Exchange architecture.

- no Google hangouts as sound was not working for someone - no zoom because someone was not allowed to install that We ended up with Skype. Wow, then you realise how out-of-date it is. We couldn't find each other through search. A generated invite for the meeting did not work.

@elizqueenmama @kaplajk @PirateQueenKate Feel free to overgeneralize. On a Skype HH with 3 of them as we speak, and I love them but they are the worst. And your way of solving my "problem" made me feel heard. That's the difference. 😆

I’ve spent the last 45 minutes trying to help set up a Skype call between Nola and her friend from South Korea with limited English. I’m not sure Skype could be any harder to use.

@joesimonssays @corbinasmith No. Skype for work purposes is terrible. One of my clients use Skype, and every week someone on the call had issues with it.

And being distracted with terrible news, I may be better off keeping all Skype meetings on mute.

@BreitbartNews As far as I’m concerned, none of them need to return. They can Skype, Zoom like the rest of us. Think of all the money we could save. Plus K street wouldn’t be right down the street. Stay Home

@SollusHealth @OreMMXVIII I got around 5 hours sleep. Not enough. I have a hypno session booked later (skype) to try to help my anxiety. #amshattered

@HongPong @amandamull @mcmansionhell I’ve wondered if a video/audio conference service that offered higher audio quality for a modest fee would get traction. I would pay something for hangouts/zoom/Skype to sound good reliably.
