• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What went wrong with Skype?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  My opinion is that Skype was killed by the smartphone. I used Skype from probably 2003-ish to 2008 as my only source of a home phone number to interact with people who had a phone number, as I did not have or want a cell phone or a landline. After that, I got a cell phone that people could call me on, replacing my need for skype a s aphone number source, and then various video chat and voice calling apps came along completely replacing the functionality I was using Skype for. Then when Microsoft bought it, that put a very sour taste in my mouth at the time, and there was no looking back.

  I was just wondering how they were going to do a land deal to get the space to build it, but your comment explains it. Good idea… Need to do more of that.

  My own experience… Paying 200$/month for 4 “unlimited” plans on mobile. Switched to boost mobile aka tmobile and now pay $108/month for 4 “unlimited” plans. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

  Wait, so bitwarden’s support is only a mechanism to save other systems passkey? Or is it a mechanism to originate a passkey, as an alternative to Google and friends? My conception of what is going on might be off, as well… So… Feel free to enlighten…
