    @circmike That's why we had to place her and we placed her maybe 6 months before the pandemic...My grandfather was visiting everyday until this happened and now the best he gets is skype calls...whenever he did schedule to see her a nurse magically came down with covid and no visitations

  • maxshanly Max Shanly (@maxshanly) reported

    I don't know why people are paying so much money for Zoom accounts that can host meetings longer than forty minutes when Skype offers the exact same service for free.

  • BUFFM0NA_BOT buff mona (@BUFFM0NA_BOT) reported

    @spencermorgan93 It is grinding me down slowly, 11 months since I met with my team from work, we have a Friday breakfast catch up and I'm really not interested in dialing in on Skype. When I do I don't say anything

  • IronBridgeSam TheIronBridge Ⓜ️ (@IronBridgeSam) reported

    Has anyone else's S.O. told them off for urinating too loudly whilst they're on a Skype call? I said "Calm down, my camera is off and the bottle isn't even half full yet."

  • ikatzsolutions iKatz Solutions (@ikatzsolutions) reported

    Interesting. I wonder if many or just how many WhatsApp accounts were compromised or hacked And what what will users with no finger scan or webcam to do? Migrate to Telegram, Viber, Skype, Wex, Wire, Wickr or Signal (Signal which in itself has some issues...that's another story)

  • JaxsBeachLife Jax- it's not censorship if you're planning a coup (@JaxsBeachLife) reported

    Everytime they skype the connection is "really bad" "skype is just terrible. she was in a taxi but I know it was her, I saw her seatbelt"

  • okreroy reroy (@okreroy) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    @jeremyburge Yeah it's very weird. But the quality of Skype is really rubbish these days, I've had multiple issues with it on the rare occasion I had to use it in 2020. They had a unbeatable lead and somehow dropped the ball completely.

    help he’s talking about the Skype call IM GETTING EMOTIONAL AND IVE JOINED FOR LIKE 2 SECONDS

  • 55krissi55 Christina (@55krissi55) reported

    @Skype & @Viber cannot be used for calling emergency services (routing, location problems). In some regions of #Bulgaria people have cable internet, but no telephone service. Thus thousands of people have no way of telephoning emergency services. #survival

  • AnimeBussy Snow Nyaa~ (@AnimeBussy) reported

    they became the defacto messaging service because they were better than skype, but now they are being dethroned by other services that are becoming better than them they fail to innovate or follow trends, often only implementing things long after other services

  • Shockalapagus Staff Sergeant John P. Espio ‘The Chameleon’ (@Shockalapagus) reported
