A security researcher has found it’s possible to reveal a Skype app user’s IP address without the target needing to even click a link. Microsoft said the vulnerability does not need immediate attention.

Because it sucks quite a bit less than Teams. I know I’ll be sad to see it go when companies eventually switch to Teams. They’re already running side by side in most places now while companies are migrating so it’s only a matter of time. Microsoft will probably announce end of life sometime this year.
Skype basically bridged the time it took Microsoft to come up with their own conferencing solution so now that Teams is here to stay they can take Skype out back and shoot it.
Isn’t today’s Skype just camouflaged Teams?
that makes a lot of sense. it is quite hard to make an app worse than teams, and it seems like the more time microsoft spends on their productivity apps the worse they get (ie word, which was pretty much finished in 2004). i haven’t used skype since finding out about mumble around 2013, but can definitely see why it might be nice to have an office meeting app that is (relatively) free from microsoft’s meddling.
