    @EricaCooper @rgay I just used it a few days ago and didn’t have any trouble. About 12 people on the call. Certainly better than the personal call I had on Skype the day before, which lagged and lowered the resolution horribly.

    @DommeSupport1 Do you only do Skype? I’m not comfortable with that program because of its security issues.

  • josh_t_dean Josh Dean (@josh_t_dean) reported

    ... the cat was not an issue with Skype, but with software more hidden and fundamental in the computer itself. It is installed by Dell when the computer is put together, he found, which explains why it would come up not just on Skype but on Zoom ...

    @wirednot I would need to see some jitter plots that you can generate from doing fast pings. I hear all the time claims that Skype work fine while Zoom doesn't. When I further press the user for detail, they admit that Skype is also having issues. I would need to see hard data.

    What have @Microsoft done to skype for business? It takes all the cpu when screen sharing, voice quality is muddy. If i was cynical I'd say It's like they have turned the wick down to force you onto teams. But that's just me. (kermit meme) #skype #MicrosoftTeams

    @skchang @chamath Anything Cisco bought for consumers should be spun off. Some Microsoft acquisitions fit the Cisco problem like Skype. LinkedIn is losing life with niche competitors taking market share and would probably be better in it's own.

  • LadyJustice6910 TraderJill - (Pronouns: Meme Queen/Your Highness) (@LadyJustice6910) reported

    When you send payment, & your husband/wife is sending it for you, I have no idea who it's for unless they tell me who you are on Twitter. Please keep in mind your name is different on Twitter/skype/Venmo & I have to keep track of all 3. Please help me out & tell me who it's for!

  • robsmallshire Robert Smallshire (@robsmallshire) reported

    @PerryGibson_ I appreciate this is a co-ordination problem a much as anything else. Code clubs could choose to use tools which work on these more-accessible platforms. I have no idea why they chose Skype of all things. But here we are.

  • mirohundak Miro Hundak (@mirohundak) reported

    @GiryaGirl @AutSciPerson Compression won't help with clipping if the mic gain is too high at recording level. Communication apps like Skype and similar have auto-gain as a default option for mic recording, which can prevent clipping, so there's no good reason why a game couldn't have similar feature.
