Skype Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • 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.

  • SwirlyGlassesVA Eddie P. | SwirlyGlasses (@SwirlyGlassesVA) reported

    @IGN The whole reason I GOT Discord was because Microsoft turned Skype into a broken, unstable, resource-draining mess. PLEASE, if it's true, don't repeat history.

  • 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.

  • lesslighter lesslighter (@lesslighter) reported

    @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

  • KeySpyMaster ❄KeybladeSpyMaster🔑 (@KeySpyMaster) reported

    At the very least integrate the group features in Teams (Personal). And while on that boat, I'd retire the current Teams (Personal) app. And GroupMe. And Skype. Part of Microsoft's issue is that it has too many messaging apps. They should whittle it down to no more than two.

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

  • Skayote Tiberius (@Skayote) reported

    This is also the company that ****** minecrafts login page in the *** when they decided that you need an MS account for minecraft. This is also the company that assraped skype to death. This is also the company that charges you $60 a year to use other peoples online servers.

    @Microsoft stay away from @discord, Skype was just terrible

  • 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?

  • moneygoo123 Daniel (@moneygoo123) reported

    @winfinityXD They are going to make it into Skype and it's going to be run down into the ground ):

  • SwirlyGlassesVA Eddie P. | SwirlyGlasses (@SwirlyGlassesVA) reported

    @IGN PLEASE don't turn Discord into a broken, unstable, resource-draining liability like you did Skype.

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

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

  • whiskeynt whiskeynt (@whiskeynt) reported

    @AttackOfTheAfro Remember you said that. They've been tryin to shove that **** down our throats for years. Now they'll **** up discord and call it the new skype. Just watch.

  • bjk394 Ben (@bjk394) reported

    @__caprica Still remember when they bought skype and drove it into the ground. They'd rather just burn cash to buy something new than fix what they have.

  • 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
