\"\"\"\"Skype<\/a> is officially dead.<\/p>\n

The video chat app was founded in 2003, and then Microsoft bought it in 2011 for $8.5 billion.<\/p>\n

Microsoft<\/a> announced it a month ago and started moving users over to their more modern Microsoft Teams platform. If you go to Skype.com, it now prompts you to “Start using Teams.”<\/p>\n

It had around 150 million monthly users at that point. But then Zoom caught on during the pandemic, and it dropped to just over 20 million users.<\/p>\n

Skype’s underlying software wasn’t really designed for mobile, so Microsoft decided to lose it as an effort to “streamline” their services. If you want to save your contacts or old Skype data, you have until the end of the year to export it.<\/p>\n
