Skype was far better before the MS acquisition - there doesn’t seem to be a comparable video platform anymore, considering that Skype offered amazing video at a time when (U.S.) internet speeds were even slower than what they are now.
- ekianjo 8y agoAgree, Skype in MS era is just a shadow of what it was before. They completely destroyed the user experience. I don't even know how you can break something that working so well before, and not realize it.
- kelvin0 8y agoMy experience using Skype on all types of connections (Cable,Fibre) and broad range of devices (High-End PCs) was always very bad (pre and post MS). We've used it both personally and in business environment, and it was always very difficult to get sound and/or image, connecting properly was always a crap shoot and included 5-10 connect disconnect before finally getting audio and video on both sides. Very painful to use. Glad some of you had better experiences.
