Seems like people do still use it. It seems MS Teams and Skype cannot talk to each other.

Skype seems a bit dated these days -- for One to One's there's nothing simpler than Meet and you can project to computer screen if you so wish. There's no nonsence of "Credits" etc and it doesn't matter on the planet where your recipient is if Internet is available,

Of course there might still be good cases for using skype -- I can't really think of any myself though. When Skype first appeared it was a relevation and a stop to ever increasing "land line" phone costs. Technology has moved on and it seems a bit of a Dinosaur these days.

Cheers
