  • thomasjcelles Thomas J Celles (@thomasjcelles) reported

    @RyanPWright @StarboyFiFi First Skype now discord 😔 they’re sniping everyone to shove Teams down our throat

  • Capp00 Capp00 (@Capp00) reported

    @theurparanoid Probably. I just don't want all the banner ads and ****** audio, just like when they took over skype. Man, I used skype for everything back in the day. Then it turned into a **** and now I can't even login because I have on idea what MS account they created for it.

  • imperialflame Imperium (@imperialflame) reported

    @Slasher No thanks. I've been using discord almost every day for over 4 years now. I'd rather not have the platform fall victim to Microsoft's terrible management like they did with Skype and Mixer.

  • LadenHard Laden (@LadenHard) reported

    @RZ_172 @Slasher Skype is bad for general users, but it was really good for companies, for a really huge time frame, and it was where the money was. Google just kills every project, or abandons it, and having everything linked to a gmail account is terrible

    If Microsoft actually buys Discord that's the definition of having money but no brains. They had Skype monopolized for years, lost out as soon as competition came up, and for all the money they're worth they couldn't fix their own platform. **** off Microsoft.

  • ColiverXYZ Coliver, Winter's Envoy (@ColiverXYZ) reported

    @Microsoft buying @Discord probably wouldn't be the end of the world but they have an awful track record with this stuff. In 2011 Microsoft bought Skype and integrated it into their own popular chat service (MSN Messenger). Skype went downhill after that and its a joke now.

    @simplygastly Well as far as I am aware skype is doing pretty well, it's tech is being used access all of MS and it's a very popular Customizable service for Telepresence in the business industry also Teams = Skype v2 but not named so.

  • dyingmathmajor Martine 🌺 (@dyingmathmajor) reported

    @business Instead of trying to acquire Discord, @Microsoft should try to fix its Teams feature (and Skype).

  • TechnoGhost2124 🍩TechnoGhost2124 (@TechnoGhost2124) reported

    @meansary321 Yea it was mostly advertising for their video chat service when Zoom started to boom either way rip Skype

  • sheromeaw Sherome (@sheromeaw) reported

    @AndaIus @business MS has been wanting to acquire Discord for the longest since the service practically killed their own service Skype.

  • ReiTheWeretiger Tanner (@ReiTheWeretiger) reported

    @cactaur Plus they already own Skype. Why do the need two of pretty much the same service.

  • Ayetlee17 H. I. Lee {Ayet} (@Ayetlee17) reported

    @cloro_2nd Skype shut down and replace with MFST

  • faustreaper Faust (@faustreaper) reported

    @ArilynaMusic like skype i never had any trouble with it, but why not. of the 3 name of the article is the only one that basically does the hardware console

  • TryhardTechy TryhardTechy (@TryhardTechy) reported

    @discord i just heard about the proposition by Microsoft to buy you out. as a long time user of discord and former user of skype there is no comparison as to how much better discord is. please for the love of everything good and all of us users turn Microsoft down! save discord!

  • edenadyk 🦌 Origameden 🦌 (@edenadyk) reported

    the biggest problem with alternatives is that you absolutely need a ton more useful features that the thing you're making an alternative for doesn't have (like discord compared to skype) or else it will be irrelevant
