    @Skype Hi. I have in the past used Skype to make a phone call in Albania. I don't understand why I need to go through an issue troubleshooting this time to make a phone call to a number that I never dialed before. I point out that I never called it before to show that there was no reasn

    @Amoirsp yes but skype is now a technically pay for service deal if you are using it as a group chat you are going to pay 5-10 dollars depending on whats your deal

  • MEOWPWR MEOW (@MEOWPWR) reported

    @Slasher Yuck. The problem with Microsoft buying software is that they don’t understand that discord or Skype is a product and they treat everything they buy as a feature of windows instead of a true product and they ruin it.

  • anime_arabian TheArabianAnime (@anime_arabian) reported

    @discord everything is broken. @Skype yall mf might have a come back

  • FlipBunny Flip Bunny @ Fun is cancelled (@FlipBunny) reported

    @Virgil_Deer They did way worse than that. As soon as they got Skype they started dropping the call quality enough that it became useless. On top of that Imagine the engineering hours wasted to put the service on the Microsoft platform.

  • Skeletondoggy Zack @ 2K+21 FUNNY TIME (@Skeletondoggy) reported

    IDK why everyone is talking about Skype again but thinking back on it feels like such a mix of dread and nostalgia, whenever stuff went down on skype it was always Extremely Wild

  • NekoiNemo NekoiNemo (@NekoiNemo) reported

    @nickjcal Remember how Skype was actually pretty good when it was independent? More realistic outline would be: buy Discord, kill Skype, make Discord as terrible as Skype is now

  • Ngadhnjim Ngadhnjim (@Ngadhnjim) reported

    @Skype for me to have blocked it. I was very willing to pay for the call with money, but not also with the time to troubleshoot this kind of issue, and this is why I did not reply to your earlier tweet. Thanks.

  • Hypurrbole_ Hypurrbole (@Hypurrbole_) reported

    OH and Discord chat themes. Just remembered that from Skype. You see how they did with Skype. If Microsoft acquires Discord I feel like the goodness of the service is done for.

  • Argante_Isto Argante (@Argante_Isto) reported

    Their interest in Discord more than likely entirely rests on the massive user base & in turn data. How quickly did MS change the privacy/data collection on Skype after acquiring it? How quickly did it become a lagy broken garbage because of the **** they added for data sniff?

  • ISephz Seph (@ISephz) reported

    @idrykk I mean. Can't fix Skype, so why not buy the working product, dissolve it and relaunch Skype in it's place. Was the 1st thing I thought of.

  • gilby722 Irreverent Cat has a response. ♿ BLM! (@gilby722) reported

    @SJBsMama What are they, a social platform vampire? Sucked Skype dry, needs a new fix?

  • jaxgreat8 Jaxgreat8 (@jaxgreat8) reported

    @ItsMpPlayz @thesquatingdog Microsoft has a history with shutting down platforms they acquired like Skype and Mixer and Discord might be next

  • Ravenmovie Ray (@Ravenmovie) reported

    @fbfishslap Well Skype just didn't fix bugs and adapt, otherwise it was.. decent

  • ihasaredcouch Jelley Saint-Allaire (@ihasaredcouch) reported

    @titan_frosty @Slasher You should be able to wait because Microsoft's history is of running Skype into the ground. Also trickle down economics is a lie.
