MontaigneMaths (@MontaigneMaths) reported@SkypeSupport hi, if I start a free conf call Is there a way to terminate the call so no one else can join into it going forward? eg/. teacher sends help desk link out in the morning but then wants to end it (or stop people joining) at the end of sch day? Thanks.

Oliver Budworth (@oliverbudworth) reported@dabitch Skype in any form is dire. Zoom is decent. Also, the sound quality on zoom is way ahead of any competitor (teams sound is terrible for instance). Zoom is like the Ronseal of the video calling world.

ᴘᴜᴅ333 #ap (@pud333) reported@BobDigi69 We've been using a messenger service through Skype for business which IMO is better. But management loves these dumb emails. I get It, they're busy, gotta reach a bunch of staff quickly, but the people replying don't know when to use reply all and when not to.

A.D. (@elasticretreat) reported@ecommerceshares I don’t think network effects work *as powerfully* in p2p as they do in broadcast/social. The original issue you’ve highlighted is the right one — execution risk from mgmt. Skype didn’t evolve for years (like Twitter) and an objectively superior product came along.

Sean Bamforth (@seanbamforth) reported@dabitch Another thing. Skype was two products. Consumer Skype was ok, but business Skype cost too much and was terrible. Every time someone told a manager to use Skype in their business, they'd choose the wrong one.

Stuart (@astronomyblog) reported@amandaborrill Screens are almost too hard for my dad too. I think I've found he has more trouble answering Skype than Facetime because the user-interface is just slightly too complicated. Unfortunately I don't have Facetime but at least my step mother does.

Major-Android (@Its_Major_A) reported@ciruelapasa17 @makeupaguy right? I drop out of discord calls constantly despite having a full internet connection, but I never have that issue with skype unless I actually do have internet troubles
-
Normcore Rockwell (@holycalamity) reported@dabitch Probably didn’t help that Microsoft is trying to get organizations to move from Skype to Teams.

Rhombus2 (@Rhombus28) reported@SkypeSupport I cannot ever call or be called with my iphone se (1st gen) to/from any skype contact (skype to Skype). Call ends immediatly before answer and it says Error. Uninstalled and reinstalled the app many times. No use through the FAQ. Human official assistance anywhere?

Ask Wells Fargo (@Ask_WellsFargo) reported@joseeramirez Hello Jose, we currently don't have a way to send access codes via email. If a traditional phone call isn't possible you can also try to call us using the internet. Simply choose a VoIP service provider such as Skype, Google Hang outs, Viber, etc. then dial 1-800-956-4442. -Lacie
