[@cantin8697]

I don't think they're trying to get older people interested in the Metaverse and in Facebook. I think they're trying to bring us younger people back in again. Many younger people, such as myself, have quit Facebook. And I believe this whole "metaverse" thing is to get into the VR hype and bring us back into giving all our data to Facebook again. They're not trying to bring older people from Facebook to Meta, but rather trying to bring us from people-who-quit-Facebook-years-ago-as-it-got-lame to Meta. They need more people and more data.

I remember my grandfather having a CueCat. He already owned a VCR that had a fancy remote with barcode scanner, which allowed him to program his VCR’s auto record function using barcodes in the weekly TV guide he got in the mail. To him, the CueCat seemed like a logical extension to this and he loved new tech. The CueCat concept didn’t work for him though, because (like you said) you had to be near your PC when reading and few magazines and newspapers supported the format because hardly anyone owned a Cue Cat.

Skype didn't really die, and they didn't become complacent. Microsoft got so far ahead in development with Skype that they felt it wasn't the same app anymore. So they redesigned the UI and renamed it Teams. Because if its tight integration with Microsoft's other product, Teams became more business focused and is now the preferred communication app for businesses around the world. Why use give apps for email, instant messaging and calls, when you could use one seamlessly integrated office package?

[@RichMidGaming]

The Skype vs Zoom one was interesting. Having been in the communications industry for almost 20 years, Skype has evolved to the point now where it forms the video aspect of Microsoft Teams - a product that outsells Zoom in both the Public and Private Sectors globally.

[@jpxyUA]

And by "outsells'' you mean is forced into every Windows 10 and 11 machine on the planet.

[@RichMidGaming]

@@jpxyUA the premium video calling features of Teams isn’t included as standard, it requires an additional license….so no Also, I’m coming at this from purely a commercial, not a consumer side of things, so very, very different landscape

[@jpxyUA]

@@RichMidGaming Thx for the explanation, though I highly doubt Microsoft will differentiate between "premium" and standard users when gloating their user numbers online.

[@gurubjar]

Yeah this one felt wierd to me. I live in Denmark and study here, Microsoft with their product range is just miles ahead of anything we can get, and if you've used Skype before you'd recognise that portion in teams. Which feels just so much more like a professional program than zoom.

[@godsent280]

As a windows 10 user I can safely say I never specifically went out of my way to look for and download teams, it just appeared on my computer one day and I immediately uninstalled it because I never asked for it, now I'm going out of my way to use zoom since microsoft forced teams onto me.

Only thing I think you missed a bit on was Skype. Microsoft certainly didn’t soar with it directly, but they essentially bought it to jump start what is now Teams and Teams is really the primary meeting and communication app next to email in the corporate world. Zoom came and went with the pandemic, with some circles still over there, but Teams is here to stay for business. It wasn’t quite ready yet in early 2020, but it’s ubiquitous now and anchors the office 355 user base.

[@stansman5461]

It exists, but in the background. The best time to grow and capitalize the online video conference market was unfortunately the pandemic. And while Teams still exists, and Zoom is almost gone, Teams still missed the biggest payday of our lives.

[@WIT_SkyCam]

@@stansman5461 I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. Teams is very much in the foreground of businesses using Microsoft 365 products. Not "all" businesses use 365 products of course, but around 20 Billion in revenue last I saw is a big chuck, and every one of those companies gets Teams for free and a large portion of them use it for at least business chat and video if not also external collaboration. If you mean to say that the public market of consumers doesn't see Teams much, that is true, but that's not, nor was it ever, the target for Teams. Teams wasn't ever trying to capitalize on the public consumer video conference market, they were trying to become the de-facto standard for business collaboration and they've pretty much done that for everyone using 365. And to be clear, I'm not saying nobody in business uses Zoom or others, because many certainly do, but the market share of Teams is unmistakable in the business world.

[@daisyc846]

@@stansman5461Teams are paid by business to be incorporated into company IT system. It’s not targeting the individual customers.

[@Cloney1337]

Yeah. In Buisness, Teams replaces Skype for buisness, taking over the entire VoIP Plattform for big and small companies, while also used for online meetings by many others. Teams also replacing slack and other plattforms, bulldozing into the buisness market thanks to 365 integration. Zoom is dead behind and forgotten in 2023.

[@hyperturbotechnomike]

I'm a bit of an outlier with my business, industry secrets and my general distrust against big tech. I decided to use a self-hosted solution, which doesn't require an account, application or anything for our customers. They just receive a throwaway weblink. But the system has it's limits. It doesn't work well on mobile and only works with small businesses.

So, the cuecat (#19) was awesome for it's time. It let you quickly read barcodes and get them into a computer for like super cheap. It was super easy to just code it to pull raw data into Acess or Excel (remember folks this was before RSS), you could also run the data (barcodes) through some IRC and forums (depending on what you needed) to actually populate your database/spreadsheet. Was is hugely popular among consumers? No . . . was it a failure? No, I went through 3 of them, and knew lots of other engineering/physics/Comp Sci folks that actually bought as many of them as we could get our hands on. And honestly, they worked better (with custom software) at scanning barcodes than your phones camera does right now.

Thank you for another great list! I do have to disagree with you on Skype, though. Microsoft didn't buy Skype to compete with Zoom, they bought it for Teams. The fact that it had a consumer following was nice, but for everyone who uses Zoom for external calls, I bet you they're making 10x as many calls on Teams, and if Microsoft didn't have a solid video conferencing solution, Teams would have crashed and burned. So it's annoying that they didn't keep up with the consumer side, but that wasn't really the main point.

Skype was a huuuuuge fail. I remember using it for instant messaging in high school and remembering the day that I updated it on my iPod Touch, I was in the gym for an assembly. I opened it after updating and thought "yeah, it's time to look for an alternative, I hate what they've done with this" The first thing I remember hating about the changes was moving to cloud storage instead of local storage. I believe before that it was basically device to device, so if you logged in on a new device, your messages would be retrieved from another one? Or you'd at least have a local database on that device. Since then it's just gotten worse and worse.

Tbh I'm still using Skype to talk with relatives. They only know that, we started using it in 2016 as it was the best at the time and shifting now it's not easy. Tried using WhatsApp videocalls but while quality has improved there, it's not at the same level yet.

[@warcin72]

Yeah by the time of the pandemic Skype was already at its planned end of life, and Teams was the go forward app. It is hard to call something a failure when it did exactly what they wanted.

[@fauzirahman3285]

Yeah but the consumer version of it got worse and worse which annoyed a lot of its former users.

[@Contritum_Anima]

i actually remember watching one of ninjas streams on mixer. despite the fact i think it was destined to fail from the start it feels weird how quickly mixer came and went.

[@DevinAswani]

you know microsoft teams? ya they bought skype for the sole purpose of integrating its tech into something new and strategically killed it off

[@PunakiviAddikti]

@@DevinAswani Huh, neat. Good riddance tbh, now we got Discord for gaming and Teams for work and school. Imo Teams fits in well with other work/school oriented Microsoft products. It's a complete package, covering everything you might need.

[@_XDan]

The ZTE Hawkeye sounds like a great idea but the problem is that it only goes for specific people. The specs are bad, the consumers ideas were only cool to a select few and other phone types like gaming phones and high specs, cheap and midranges as well as flagships. To do this is just confusing and wouldn't sell as well if it's only for a select few who like this. Not good for sales. If they want to do this they should've used better hardware and come up with better ideas.

[@callummclachlan4771]

I have a gaming phone. Don't actually use it for that purpose, only have one game on it (Asphalt). Got it because of the specs and price, and also because it has a headphone jack, which is a rarity for a phone made in 2021.

What a way to go out in 2021, Arun! Props to you for some great, great content this year, and it's been an absolute pleasure to watch each vid this year! Can't wait to see what's in store next year!

@Chillzone Gaming Why thank you!

[@0638]

Ok

[@exyzt9877]

I'd say that, for skype, while the video conference aspect was overtaken by zoom, but the social aspect was overtaken by Discord. Discord has some basic video and voice conferencing features, but it's main attraction is it's nature as a platform for invite-only communities. This was originally intended to let friends play games together with voicechat without relying on in-game voicechat, or for games that didn't have it, but now is used for... a lot of things really.

Mixer was something I watched occasionally And a few months ago I checked in to see it since it had been a long time and I didn’t see the app, neither on store or library

[@mandiblackwell4668]

Is Skype really that much of a fail if it was ahead of the game and successful for SO many years before Zoom even existed? No one I knew ever even really bothered using it for voice or video, in the early 00s-2010 it was super popular as a messenger in general.

[@Olterior]

Slype was discord, teamspeak, ventrillo and a whole bunch of other apps all in one for many people who weres a teen in the 00s. Microsoft buying slype is what killed it. Microsofts mismanagement killed it, but ay least they learnt from their mistake, as when they bought Teams, they actually worked to make it better and lightweight.

[@mandiblackwell4668]

@@Olterior lol that's right, I forgot, but like, it is still technically kicking.... even if it isn't like it once was, is Myspace reallt a failure if it made many people super rich?

The mixer one hurts to this day, because I had been a part of it since the beginning. My first post on Mixer, was when it was called Beam, on the Xbox 360

[@mrawesome7713]

Similar to the facetime bug, you have the intentional feature in Amazon Echo Shows where you could "drop in" on somebody else's Show, and the call would be automatically picked up after a few minutes. This was quickly removed but still a huge potential issue

[@Col_Crunch]

The thing about Mixer is that not only did Microsoft try to buy their audience, they also bought Mixer. It was originally called Beam, which was built to allow for better interactivity between streamers and users, including easily enabling "twitch plays" type streams. It was a cool concept, I wonder how much potential it would have had if Microsoft never touched it.

[@chucklesdeclown8819]

Or if Microsoft actually allowed it to grow instead of trying to artificially inflating it. I think beam/mixer would of easily had a chance to do more if it was alive today because people are really getting sick of twitch.

[@emerald7939]

Fun fact: there was also a Power Glove for the N64 that had all the buttons at your fingertips (literally) and the joystick would be controlled with movement of the wrist. The only problem was that it would take a minute or two to adjust to moving the game with your wrist and would hurt your wrist from long usage. This just proves that no matter what the product is, companies never learn from their mistakes.

[@ClaudioMichel]

I had the glove for the N64. I wanted it to work so badly. I thought the concept was awesome. But it wasn't good, sometimes it didn't register the movements of the hand correctly, sometimes you had to reset and recalibrate the glove during the game and as he said in the video: holding up your arm for a long period of time is just tiring.
