Yep skype keeps getting worse and worse.
U can google "download skype old version" and find some mirrors for older versions.
I've since migrated to Telergam. I think most ppl sticking with it for same reason as u. too many contacts, locked into that platform. no way everyone moves all at once.
But Skype is what most people use for contact. Or am I wrong?
I am also thinking of switching to telegram.
But telegram does not provide video calling right? Or does it and my current phone does not support it?
Discord is pretty good too. But I haven't had a hang of it. Yet. Need to use it more.
But a good thing is. I am not firm on using just one contact.
It's very effective to have multiple contact ways.
Discord. Telegram. Email. (Anything that alot of people use?)
Oh and Google Hangouts sucks balls too...
No telegram does have audio on mobile.I don't think Telegram does video nor audio calls. Only audio files.
Skypee does what it does and that's why people like it. If I were Telegram I'd do a video system and completely destroy sky pee. Telegram is the best messenger around.
For video calls/group call/screen sharing we use appear.in ( i am not affiliated to them in any way). For other stuffs we use telegram. Works quite well for our company. Another good thing about appear is that you can have the conversation in browser. No extra apps needed. Anyone with an email ID can join too.I don't think Telegram does video nor audio calls. Only audio files.

Edit: Btw, telegram does support audio calling, in case you missed it.
There are still some old versions of Skype which are working fine. I'm using v7.41.32.101 without problems. But it needs some tweaks.
Check it out: https://www.winytips.com/download-skype-classic-7-41-101-7-40-104/
is all written in that guide. You need to download skype 7.41.32.101(the link is from a 3rd party but it seems safe). Then just run it. It works fine for me. Until couple a weeks ago there was a tweak. After installing create a shortcut, click on properties and put your user/pass in the target field. Now it asking for an update with that trick.
Btw, I'm on Win7
Which OS are you using?
But I am using Windows 10 pro. Does it make any difference? please let me know
It seems it doesn't work anymore for Win 10. From what I read on reddit it seems it only works on win 7x64. Even so, there are users who claim it doesn't work for new installations. I guess I'm lucky. If you want to test it out just put win7 iso on a virtual box and see how it goes.
