In case anyone was wondering what actually happened to make Skype decline: Skype went to shit when they started forcing ads into the service in the early/mid 2010s. The ads never unloaded and instead just kept stacking the data, causing massive bloating and crashing computers when it became too much to handle. People had to consciously close and restart Skype every so often just to keep their computers running, and if they put their computer into sleep mode without closing Skype and it decided to wake up an update, it was crashing and interrupting the update, preventing the work that needed to be done the next day as the update went "happening now, eat shit." It was irredeemably fucked up and drove people away to other services that weren't causing their computers to overheat from obtrusive unwanted ads that didn't used to be there. If I remember right, this happened when Microsoft bought Skype. So yes, Microsoft killed Skype, full stop.

If a meeting host says "actually we're doing this one on Teams" it changes literally nothing except the interface. If an uploader decides to post on Vimeo, they leave their audience behind. It's not even the size mismatch, it's the inherent drawbacks of partitioning content. A lot like what's happened to streaming services, only way worse for small creators.

[@LoveMyUnusual]

@@woodfur00 I agree. It's tougher to have a variety of video platforms when one is used the most. Not sure if creators here have tried out Vimeo, but there's a pretty good number on Twitch. This doesn't negate that YT has a lot of problems they don't care to fix.

[@danieljensen2626]

It is pretty funny that Skype was THE name in video calls for like 15 years, but they were so complacent that they never added any features, and then a no-name company took their entire market share in one year because it actually supported a reasonable number of people on a call.

[@RN1441]

I have to *completely* disagree with you, it's not that they didn't add features, it's that they constantly added idiotic features while neglecting core functionality. I could ignore the fact that Skype went from being a slim and useful tool to being a bloated mess with xbox integration and a ton of other crap I never wanted to have to deal with, but the fact they ended up with like six different barely working versions by 2014 should have been a wakeup call. I spent two hours trying to help my mother set up skype on her idiotic windows 8 machine only to have it keep freaking out because of some microphone setting somewhere in Internet explorer, and having it fight me every step of the way when I tried to get the desktop version on to her computer. So no, the problem isn't that they didn't add features it's that they broke the basics of calling people, shoehorned in a bunch of crap that just got in the way and bloated the program, then they made their versions fight each other. Final straw was when they screwed over the mobile version to try to make a snapchat clone by removing the last useful feature of being able to see whether or not the three people on your contact list you still talk to were actually online or not.

[@damn9603]

From what I read, it looks like after Microsoft bought skype, they did try and add things but the actual code and framework was hanging on by a thread. They had an incredibly difficult time making any changes without completely crashing the entire thing. It's honestly really funny to imagine buying a company for 8.8 billion and then not even being able to change it.

[@-umph]

I don't know Skype annoyed me for so many years, since it was always tied to a very very old user account at first (they wanted you to make a 'live' account, trying to compete with google plus, when the company launched, I always had trouble logging in. The desktop notifications were terrible, it constantly logged itself out unlike every other chat app that I've ever used which uses cookies or an app to keep you logged in, Skype credit was 10 times that of other VoIP providers although most people don't know that. I don't know exactly how they got embedded into Microsoft so much but it was always pre-installed on Windows and always started at the beginning and non-tech savvy people were always complaining to me about Skype. And the 'web helper' uses so much memory, back when most typical pc users only had 2-4 gigs of ram. They were the first ones to ban using a Google voice number and Skype credit to circumvent having to pay a cell phone company. You would think that they would want to monetize this huge opportunity but instead they killed that entire emerging marketplace back in 2008. Skype deserves it. No one deserves it more.

[@weeksweeks9552]

Voice call was already on the way out before covid hit, let alone VIDEO call. Imagine having to actually "talk" to people, or worse - look at them while they are talking. I dont think many people actually LEFT skype, like me, most just stopped bothering 7 years ago. Zoom came up at an opportune timing and the fact that you just needed to press 1 button and no account needed, that was the most important thing.

[@-umph]

@@weeksweeks9552 I don't know. I had so many people complain to me about their windows computers and it was just Skype 50% of the time. They lost good will, and yeah, clearly didn't use the decade they had to innovate, just making it a harder and harder product to interact with. I can't imagine gen z using the Skype interface, it's like the 90s.

But they failed to keep up with the times, and bigger companies entered the market that could burn endless money on infrastructure. Also Skype failed to secure enterprise contracts. Zoom really succeeded because they vendor-locked tons of medium size businesses and were well positioned to reap the profits, Skype spent time chasing lay-consumer buy in.

[@blaze4111]

to be honest, skype lost its popularity long before the pandemic. so when the need for conference calls rise with the pandemic people weren't looking to go back. zoom was used by google and worked with its apps so it was easy for many companies to use it. and so it rose in popularity and since everyone was using zoom it became the go to.
