Not to mention the tight grip MS is having on the accounts, trying to link everything to Live, plus disabling asccounts for "violation of TOS"and forcing you to provide a cell phone number in order to re enable the account (And no way to find out what exact part of the TOS you broke: Believe me, I tried). I've had a Skype acc for 10+ years; I've been holding back updating the app because the new versions are a total and utterly crap. Last time I opened it the dialog box changed to an "Update now" only button, so I left it there. My company changed from a Skype only (With paid accounts) communication based model to Slack + GoToMeeting when needed. I'd really like to know how much money they stopped making in the recent years.
