Ever since Skype got bought out by Microsoft in 2011, it took a while for the cracks to start showing. But once they did, Skype was slowly on its last legs. This software was great to use before the buyout, but soon it became a mess when it tried to "fix" things that didn't really need fixing and the performance started to wane. Now, it looks like Microsoft is putting the final nail in Skype Classic's coffin and driving anyone still using it away to find alternatives!
