That’s all.

EDIT: Thank you all for detailing your experience with, and hatred for, this miserable product. Your display of solidarity is inspiring. Now, say it with me:

Fuck Microsoft

Nonsense. Slack was far superior, though not touched it since it was bought out.

I used to make calls through MSN Messenger and it was a much better experience than Skype. Skype always seemed lower quality.

I used to like MSN and even Skype. Skype felt like it degraded under MS. They seem to buy stuff and the product stagnates or regresses. Either they crush innovation or cut funding and try and milk profits. I suspect a lot is integration of Active Directory etc so they can bundle up, sell to orgs and lock them into their shitty ecosystem.
