The current version of skype is rife with usability problems, they dropped a lot of key things since the last major version...
- The mute/unmute button hides itself, even when your mouse pointer is ready and waiting right over top of it (to click when it's your turn to speak)
- To add more kick to the nuts, they also apparently removed the mute/unmute shortcut key
- Screen shares dim when your mouse is over them
- If you're watching a screen share, you can't reply to someone else without hiding the screen share
- System music is no longer paused when a call comes in... not a big deal, but it was nice before when it would pause your music
- Favorites no longer exist and pinned sorting sucks now, it was better when these two lists were separate
- You can't change the width of the contact list, now it's always too small or too large depending on the window size
All of these things were fine in the last major version.
