  • Queen0fMoondoor Charlie, Queen of the Nomads, First of Her Name (@Queen0fMoondoor) reported

    @TheRandyKetch *She swallows down her feelings and tries to dry her eyes discreetly.* I'm always with you, Randy. *She points at her heart.* Besides, it's not like we won't see each other again. Can't forget phones and skype exist. I just... I can't be the reason you don't find happiness.

  • kramit Mike Whitehouse (@kramit) reported from Birmingham, England

    @ChrisHoodAU Skype could just ‘go down’ a lot, and teams seems to be much more stable. Would really suck if it ‘went down’ at critical points like 9am in the morning so everyone would have to use teams.

    @Sidowski I've just come off a Skype call from a supplier in China, its 'normal' there now. But they locked down very hard, in a democracy that level couldn't happen. Its also people that spread the virus, not the government, if people took the rules more seriously we'd be better off.

    @discord you mfers killed skype and you cant even fix the same update loop problem thats existed since 2005

  • KUVlRAS cassandra 🥲 (@KUVlRAS) reported

  • thomasjo Thomas Johansen (@thomasjo) reported

    One of the big hurdles is a general lack of proper support for GNU/Linux in popular (collaborative) software such as Skype, Teams, Slack. None of these have decent support for screen sharing, etc, which has made the whole WFH experience more terrible than necessary.

    **** that 5 person ****. If you don't NEED that person in your home for the next 4 weeks, skype. 1 person per household out to the stores and go once a week if you can help it. Think Defcon April 2020. It's now or wait till summer to get this under control.

    @discord since I use discord I swear it is the best and the 2nd place is skype, the great platform of 2017 but I have a little problem the notifications no longer appear or the call windows I liked but the notifications no longer appear psd i love discord

  • PJD57301 Phil Davies (@PJD57301) reported

    So three households at Christmas about this, limit the numbers have the rest of the family on Skype or Zoom, only have them people around who are most important to you, it would keep the virus in the box & not put our hard work down the drain leading into 2021 #Retweet

  • Zamuel42 President Elect Zamuel42 (@Zamuel42) reported

    @MrTedLouis ok last ******* message from me to you. I guess if you ever want you can track me down on skype or discord and tell me how you were sorry for not realizing how right I am. have you been to a spoon bending party? I havent but talked (in person) with many who have.

  • AndyMRoberts Andrew Roberts 💬🇪🇺 (@AndyMRoberts) reported

    @NFGmart Bubbles or not, I am not letting my brother come down to see mum. She is 81 and it’s just not worth the risk. She can Skype him and talk to him face to face on that. Boris wants to be father ******* Christmas, instead he’ll be the Grinch who killed all the grandparents.

  • ElenaGorianova Elena Gorianova (@ElenaGorianova) reported

    @SkypeSupport My Skype account was stolen in 2018; you 'couldn't do anything' for me then. This the thief set up 'auto-charge'. HELP!

  • DianeKornblum Diane Kornblum (@DianeKornblum) reported

    @GovMikeDeWine Governor DeWine, it is time to shut down Ohio with 40 million people traveling by car and by air this virus is not going to go away anytime soon you know this! People are so selfish only thinking of themselves they cannot Skype or do FaceTime? This is very very sad!

  • SaltNPepperDesi TheSindhiSaiN (@SaltNPepperDesi) reported

    @GaneshSP47 overzealous kalendar chhaap peepal! my previous team was so nice. once i left a msg on skype regarding some issue coz he was away. He said call me anytime dude. if I cant take it, will return it ASAP. And the mgr clubbed most meetings together. agenda based, outcome driven :-)

  • tsix_xist Pablo Escobars Forgotten Hippo (@tsix_xist) reported

    @redditships I would have broken up with her after the boss thing. Or after the failed proposal thing. Or after the family Skype call thing.
