🚨MICROSOFT SHUTTING DOWN SKYPE ON MAY 5, 2025
After 23 years, Microsoft is officially retiring Skype to focus entirely on Teams. Users have 10 weeks to migrate contacts and chats before the service is discontinued.
Skype, once a pioneer of internet calling, saw its peak at 300M users, but has since declined to 36M. Microsoft says Teams' growth made this decision inevitable.
End of an era.
