"Skype for Business" was just a rebranded Lync. Consumer-land skype remained a different thing until Microsoft killed that for Teams. Skype for Business' exe was lync.exe right up until the end. "Teams" was a brand new thing and didn't use the Communicator/Lync/Skype for Business architecture.

>Skype for Business' exe was lync.exe right up until the end What do you mean "end"? We still use it!

  I miss skype, only because there was a pidgin plugin that allowed you to use a nice lightweight and snappy client.

  It's now end of life for Teams, there's no chance they'll rename the exe at this point. You'll be lucky to get anything except the most critical bugs fixed.

Then why does it say "Skype is using the microphone" In the KDE taskbar when on a Teams call?
