  1. Auf Wikipedia ist bei Skype Microsoft als Entwickler gelistet, dabei sind sie doch maximal Weiterentwickler.

    Skype selbst wurde entwickelt von

  2. Skype is still sitting on my phone. It stopped working when Microsoft shut it down last May (2025 btw), and I am still not deleting it.

    ICQ did not survive the last phone. Moving to a new iPhone pulls everything back down from the App Store, and ICQ has not been in the store since 2024, so it just quietly never came back. No warning and nothing to confirm. On the old phone it was there, on the new one it was gone.

    So a dead app lives exactly as long as the phone it sits on.

    Who else is keeping one of these around?

  3. Skype wurde im Mai 2025 eingestellt, von daher macht es keinen Sinn mehr dieses Tool zu verwenden.
    Ich denke ohnehin dass die Wenigsten noch über Skype telefonieren, da es viele Alternativen gibt
    Was nutzt Ihr denn?

  4. Seeing this ad read for an app called #Keet on last night's episode of #TimcastIRL, apparently it's a #P2P chatting, calling and file sharing app.

    Incidentally, I was thinking about #Skype yesterday, and was wondering what its spiritual successor could possibly be.

    Got no idea if this is #FOSS, but this does sound interesting.

  6. Das #EU-Parliament hat heute tatsächtlich die anlasslose #Überwachung von Chat-Nachrichten bis 2028 eingeführt!

    Auf #Instagram, #Discord, #Snapchat, #Skype, and #Xbox, #Gmail und #iCloud, etc. werden also Nachrichten - potentell zu Kontrollzwecken - mitgelesen.

    Ende-zu-Ende verschlüsselte Nachrichten sind davon - noch - nicht betroffen.

  7. I just remembered the time when #Skype would begin to allow you editing messages. There was a brief period, where it allowed you to edit ANY message (even those not from you), which predictably led to chaos and mayhem in any group chat I was a member of 😅

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

  9. "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.

  10. 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

  11. I just found out one of my old laptops still had #skype installed.

    not anymore ;)

  12. #AI är lurendrejeri (säger jag pga vet inget om det).

    Att ett AI-företag, startade för 3 månader sen, som ska leverera för "kvant"-marknaden värderas till 3,5 miljarder är oförståeligt.
    Dock har dom redan kontrakt värda 20 miljoner euro.

    Men, jag kan tänka mig att kontrakten faller om dom inte kan leverera i tid och enl specifikation. Lite som #Northvolt.

    Men systemet är riggat för dom som har cash.

  13. Estonian programmer Ahti Heinla, born OTD in 1972, was one of hte developers of #Skype, and founded Starship Technologies to develop self-driving delivery robots cromwell-intl.com/travel/eston #travel #Estonia

  14. Estonia to relaunch #Skype as Europe’s sovereign platform! 😉 "Unconfirmed reports suggest the first official sovereign European video call may begin with the words: “Can you hear me now?” estonianworld.com/technology/e...

  15. Was war eure Messenger-Journey? Welcher Messenger war bei euch mal 'ne Weile die Nummer 1?

    Bei mir war es so:

    #TelMe
    #SMS
    #ICQ
    #IRC
    #XMPP/#Jabber
    #Telegram
    #Signal

    nie auf Platz 1, aber in Nutzung waren bei mir:
    #MSN, #AIM, #Y!M, #Skype, #Threema, #WhatsApp, #Matrix, #Tox, #DeltaChat

    An mehr aktiv benutzte kann ich mich nicht erinnern, wie war es bei euch? #Slack dabei? oder #Teams? Vielleicht #RocketChat?

  16. Did you ever have a #Skype account, maybe unused for a decade?

    It still exists, but now is a Microsoft account. 😱

    Good news! Now is the best time for digital hygiene:
    Delete it like every other Microsoft account 👇

  17. Arrgh, #Microsoft

    They have an "endpoints API" that has a machine readable list of endpoint IPs for #MS products. It does not mention #Teams, but does list #Skype. None of those IPs appear to be used by Teams.

    There's a human-readable page with Teams endpoints, which are the same IPs listed for Skype above.

    There's a human-readable page for "Azure Communications Services". Does not mention Teams, but lists IPs Teams seems to use. There is no machine-readable version.

  18. Bekommt ihr auch noch so nostalgische Gefühle, wenn in irgendeinem jahrealten Film der #skype-Klingelton bimmelt?

  19. At this stage, #Windows has become utter #cancer — which it already has been — but now it’s in its final stage… the best time to explore new frontiers or vistas 🤔🤩🙌 #Skype is the limit 🌌🤣🐧🧠 #JoinLinux

  20. От форумов и аськи до Zoom и Telegram: как менялось общение в сети последние 30 лет

    Аська, Skype, первые групповые чаты — всё это было частью нашей цифровой молодости. Я собрал ностальгическую историю о том, как менялись технологии и наши привычки интернет-общения за 30 лет.

  21. Mikähän olisi järkevä vaihtoehto skypen voip puheluille?

    Isä on soitellut aiemmin sillä järkihintaan kanadaan vanhalle sukulaiselle puhelimeen, onko jotain vastaavaa palvelua toista?

    Pikaviestimillä tietty onnistuu ilmaiseksi, mutta paras olis jos toisen ei tarvitsisi mitää sovellusta.
