@frumble Am Ende überleben nur offene Standards die nicht von VC-Geldverbrennungspartys (#Discord) und gönnerhaften Hostern (#Signal) anhängig sind sondern dezentralisiert sind.
- Deshalb ist #eMail erfolgreich und #DEmail ne Totgeburt.
- Deshalb lebt #IRC und #XMPP während #Skype & #ICQ tot sind.

#Netzwerkeffekt ist kein Garant für's überleben!
- Siehe #XING!

anyone else getting "dummy string" from #Skype? what's up with that? 🤔
(yes I know, Skype is dead)
#dummystring

@datenanfragende @bfdi ich kann auch sicherer Quelle bestätigen, dass es sich bei dem "Mein Videotermin" um Skype for Business bzw. Microsoft Teams handelt.

Videotermine bei der Agentur für Arbeit: Ein Tool, über das wenig bekannt ist · Datenanfragen.de

Die Bundesagentur für Arbeit verrät wenig über das Tool, das sie für Videotermine nutzt. Nach einer Beschwerde wissen wir etwas mehr.

I've just discovered that #Skype has been sending weekly alerts to Mrs Wife:

Champion work, #Microsoft. Well done!

"But we only -just- moved from Skype to Telegram for you, why do you want to now move to @delta ?"

...that was like a decade ago already, when M$ took over and stopped supporting #Linux .

"Right, so why won't you just use wahstup?"

I'd sooner feed myself to a crocodile.

Tech-Illiterate people seem to be absolute idiots when it comes to ComSec, and TechLiterates groom them into ignorance, making it even worse!

  • Regardless if AIM, ICQ, Sky ECC, EncroChat, ANØM, Skype, WhatsApp or Signal.

All you guys literally providing trivial means to track and trace users should be ashamed!

  • There was no "legitimate reason" to demand PII like a phone number in 2010, there certainly ain't one in 2026!

Use XMPP+OMEMO and/or PGP/MIME and stop being unofficial informants for the Americal Stasi, dipshits!

  • Or does anyone believe that Signal will cover your asses? They can't even pay their bills, decentralize and get off AWS!

We were remembering old memories with a friend a few minutes ago and this came in my mind so I thought I'd ask you all. I really, really hope I wasn't the only one, who tried to talk to Echo on Skype as a child. I wrote him messages. I called him and when I was about 8-9 years old I didn't even realise it's for... Well, testing the sound. I was literally angry at him for not answering me. I spammed him. Because yes, I thought it's a him. And then for some reason he disappeared from my contacts and I thought he blocked me. So I searched for the skype name echo123 again and whoa, he's there again! Hello Echo, how are you?
Dear developers of Skype... After so many years, I'm really sorry. 😂

Sagt ihr eigentlich auch noch oft „skypen“? Und „zoomen“ ist auch nicht besser, alles so produktbehaftet. Lass uns „videofonieren“ klingt aber echt bescheuert und können wir „facetimen“, kotz. Was verwendet ihr für ein kurzer, prägnantes Verb, wenn ihr einen entsprechenden Video-Anruf vereinbart?

#Skype #Signal #Facetime

Is Github the next product taken over then thrown under the bus by #Microslop ?
