It's Goodbye Skype

[Glenntech]

So the service that I must admit, I've not used in years is to shut down on 5th May

To be honest I didn't think it was still going with all the other chat services.

That's been going for years, was one of the first early chat platform available. I can't remember when I last used it.

Yes not a great surprise, cannot imagine there are a great number of active users.

Wow, haven't skyped since my World of Warcraft years! It's too bad, but so many chats have come and gone. Not used it in over 11 years now. So long Skype 🫡

Not touched Skype in a very long time- sad to see it go

Wasn't a big user of Skype but it was revolutionary in its day.

Guess it became irrelevant in today's market place like many products from Microsoft and Goggle and the like

MSN Messenger was the G.O.A.T and I shan't be convinced otherwise.
