This is a normal post Skype used to be great
Just connect, use a mic and your speakers, and it was like you were just sat in the same room. Free, no subscription, worked great every time, small, low cpu usage.

Then Microsoft got their hands on it, and they made it bloated, less reliable, information grabbing.

So I stopped using it.

This is a normal post I stopped communicating when we changed from hitting each other over the head with clubs to using a rudimentary language of grunts.

This is a normal post I heard the Skype ring tone on TV a few days ago
And it took me straight back to lock-down and working from home. Although it was a better UI and far less buggy than Teams, it quickly became obvious that Teams had better audio quality when the connection speeds were iffy which contributed to a wholesale switch over to Teams in my office.

This is a normal post The Nokia ringtone
Some people don't know that it was ripped off from Francisco Tarrega - Gran Vals (Great Waltz).
