  Yeah, for about a week. It’s been awesome for the 20 years since. I’ve used it on some really shitty internet on a weekly-to-daily basis and I’ve only been amazed at its reliability.

  So it stands to reason in 2025 America that we need to destroy something just because it works and works well.

  You shoulda tried it. Too bad. It dynamically switched codecs based on congestion, it punched through nats like none before it; it just worked.

  None of this “Skype in name” Lync mess.
