@iOSMikeySpikey My biggest problem with Skype right now is that when someone else is screensharing it randomly contracts the size of the image, cropping out about 10% of each side of their screen. Sometimes restarting it fixes the problem, sometimes it just keeps doing it.

Honestly, totally forgot. However, whenever I have a Skype problem, I do curse Microsoft.

Waking up in an air conditioned bubble, reaching for a fresh glass of juice, settling down to a day of zoom/ skype is far removed from the reality out there for millions. Hungry Walking under the scorched sun Headed for home Desperate for relief! An unsympathetic state knows all!

Never mind Hat Hair or Bed Hair, the new personal appearance issue seems to be Headset Hair from too many Zoom or Skype calls.

First @Skype made me cry by locking me out (which I'm still raging about) and then in the middle of figuring out internet connection issues my computer just decided to install updates... so yeah @Arkwulf and I will record @ThunderQuackPod tomorrow. #callit #techsupport

Bloke on this Skype call sounds like he’s breathing down a cardboard tube. It’s very strange.

My daughter kept on interrupting my Zoom and Skype meetings w/ her orders such as “Mama, let’s catch” (play catch) “Mama, cry!” (Won’t stop until I make crying noises) “Mama, let’s spin around” “Mama help! Fire fire!” (Arte nya lang) #toddlerquarantine

@naturally_tm 🤔 In the 2000s, Skype introduces 25-person video call with free download and Internet access. That was a game changer. The problem started when eBay acquired Skype for $ 2.6 Billion.

@baxiabhishek @PranavDixit Hey Skype for Business is really behaving badly. Connect issues... I'm waiting in the lobby and it shows only me and all others find the same thing. Doesn't happen within the same company though. We've switched to Teams and Microsoft is urging biz users to switch.

I generally avoid criticizing other developers or their work. But I make an exception in 3 cases: 1) Eclipse as the original Android IDE was terrible. 2) Skype screws up way too frequently 3) The Xcode team is criminally wasteful of resources and cleaning up obsolete files

Teleworking pet peeve - if my skype status says in a meeting, don’t message me asking me to troubleshoot your issue with One Drive.
