The end of Skype.
🌐 The end of an era Insider version of Skype for Android has a newly added text string that states «Starting in May 2025, Skype will no longer be available». Back in 2017-2018 Discord pretty much superseded Skype. I was actively using Skype until my friends started swiftly moving to Discord, whic...
Tech content creators and news sites have recently dug into an Insider build of Skype's files, to find a string of text which reads as follows:
"Starting in May 2025, Skype will no longer be available. By logging into Microsoft Teams with your Skype account, your chats and contacts will appear in the app so you can pick up where you left off. Alternatively, you can export your Skype data"
This message comes as no surprise to those who saw the writing on the walls before this, especially since people had already jumped over to other platforms, such as Zoom, Discord, and even Microsoft's own-brand Microsoft Teams.
I myself have fond memories of contacting friends and family with Skype, especially during the pandemic before I got Zoom.
Farewell, Skype. You will always live on in the hearts and minds of those that used it.
2003 - 2025
Windows fr thinks that getting updates done is more important than getting work done.
I don't blame them for protesting. Yeah, admittedly AI is cool n' all, but you don't need to encourage an entire military to get in on it.
That's the problem - I've never had any banned accounts on Reddit before
This is the exact problem I'm having, with a suspension and subreddit ban on top of that (the subreddit that I created was also banned)
When reddit bans your account 5 minutes after creation for no reason:
Btw the german text reads "This account has been suspended", with buttons to log in and sign up
I agree - I've heard from others that the Snapdragon 8 G1 is quite power hungry and not very power efficient, especially for a SoC that was hyped by Qualcomm when it came out.
The battery life on my Find X5 Pro I believe to be linked to age. My dad owned this phone before I did so it had about a year or 2 of use which could have degraded the battery over time.
I am British myself so I can relate to calling them microcrisps😂
It seems that (no matter how hard people try) Microsoft will always stop supporting some CPUs for no reason. It's utterly pathetic, don't get me wrong, but it wont stop people from installing Windows 11 on "unsupported" hardware.
Oppo Find X5 Pro battery life
Is it just me, or does the Oppo Find X5 Pro have the worst battery in existence, even when it launched and was brand new? At most (during normal usage) it lasted me about 2:30hrs on average, but this number was sometimes more or less depending on what my phone felt like doing.
As well as this, I have to travel long lengths to shopping, and in most scenarios I'd leave my house with 100% and make it back with about 30-45%. I've even lost the ability to scan my train tickets through the barriers at some stations thanks to this.
