No, I don’t want to design a logo for a coffee shop in fucking skype.
Every app has to have fucking AI now for some reason.
Agreed, it’s infuriating. As are Skype’s continual efforts to get me to follow interest channels. Why can’t it just be a communications app, and leave it at that? Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!
I’m surprised anyone still uses Skype tbh
It’s a work thing for me, I wouldn’t use it otherwise.
I find it useful for what it’s actually meant for, but they keep trying to force other functionality into it, it’s so frustrating.
because it was made in estonia.
Isn’t Skype a Microsoft product?
in the begining it wasn’t
Line go up
It’s promotion-driven development at its finest.
It’s trying to be another WhatsApp.
Shudder…
Right? Like yet another app is needed xD
I’ve used Skype. It was not just “mildly” infuriating, and that was before copilot.
It used to be really good, but then Microsoft bought it and almost immediately ruined it.
It went from direct connections between user computers to all routing through Micrsoft’s centralized servers. I wonder why everyone started having connection and lag issues after that.
I wouldn’t call it “good.” It was usable
The android version was awful from the start
It was one of the few options that worked back in the day.
Skype still exists?!
Officially, but it hasn’t really been Skype for at least a decade and a half…
Image still using Skype in 2024. Why, just why?
My Dad does not understand how to use anything else, except email. Perhaps we should just use email instead! 😅
I feel your pain. I’m forced to use a TELEPHONE to contract the old dinosaur.
Who uses Skype?
Corporate, companies that bought all-in into MS ecosystem. Which is weird that they added this to the mobile client as Skype for business is ending support in 2025, it’s supposed to be replaced by Teams, which it not ready BTW. So, I don’t know what any of these is supposed to do, perhaps just rake in more data before the service dies for good?
Trial on people who they don’t care about upsetting.
What is Teams missing? I’m not familiar with the mobile app, but the desktop client eclipsed Skype ages ago (except for scrolling back through old messages).
It cannot integrate with or handle existing VoIP services, receive or answer phone calls, handle land and cellular switches and terminals, and it cannot route or transfer calls (audio or video) automatically. It doesn’t handle automated away time messages or rerouting, auto-replys to chat, it cannot serve users external of the organization. And those are only the few things I use daily, sure there must be many more things that Skype can do an Teams just doesn’t because it’s a slack and zoom hybrid. It just doesn’t fit the role Skype has in my org and it’s why we continue to run both together until the very second the Skype servers are finally shut down.
Dunno, I’m just a humble cross poster who hasn’t for a decade plus change 🤷
File my tax, wash a car, press A to not die…
It’s a loading screen of exploitation.
Delicious Skype cocktails though!
“Pwease give us access to your contacts UwU. We wanna find ur friends. All of them.”
I will be your only friend
Some things never change…
Bring bonzi buddy back :(
Bonzi Buddy never left. It was us who forsake him.
That first edit at the top looks like a sweet bicep dude!
Just looking for bros. Again, nothing sexual.
“Taiwan’s strongest earthquake” sounds like a variation of those “strongest soldier” memes
