Hexenherz 09/27/20 10:00:26 AM #4:	Has anyone else noticed lately that Skype is auto-launching in the background on Windows 10 devices? Besides that we still use Skype in our office after using Zoom for a while and it's so annoying. --- FFXIV: Lucius Hexenseele (Brynhildr) \| RS3: UltimaSuende . 99 WC/Fish/Cook/Fletch/Div/Mining/Smithing/Thieving/Crafting/RC https://letterboxd.com/BMovieBro/ <cite>Hexenherz posted [p:945138479] in Whatever h...

ultimate reaver 09/27/20 10:22:05 AM #7:	The way I remember it skype got bought out by microsoft and from that point on just kept falling behind other similar programs further and further and further. It was getting slower and more bloated with every update and I stopped using it entirely at some point Discord was the death knell for it being used for casual people and Zoom is better in a professional setting --- I pray god will curse the writer, as the writer has cursed the world with this beautiful, stupendous creation, terrible in its simplicity, irresistible in truth <cite>ultimate reaver posted [p:945139000] in Whatever h...

Zanzenburger 09/27/20 10:29:46 AM #9:	Skype is owned by Microsoft and is being discontinued. It is being fully replaced by Microsoft Teams end of 2020/early 2021. Which sucks because Skype is amazing and Teams is very clunky and unintuitive. In my opinion, Skype > Zoom > Teams Edit: To clarify I am referring to Skype for Business (which is leagues better than regular Skype). --- Congratulations!
