My memory says that both vent and teamspeak were way better for audio, but this was also a time where no one had a mic remotely close to the average you get today. Video, yes. But skype was really buggy and often did not even work

Cant read the article due to paywall, but, nothing "went wrong" with skype, it was and has always been utter trash. Just having your username leaked was a security breach. Skype's only merit was it was the first easy to use video calling platform that combined text, audio and streaming in one.

Theres a reason why it was so easy to move my friends group off skype to discord right when discord launched, but I havent been able to convince that same group to move from discord.

I agree that someone conned deserves compassion. You got tricked into sending someone money? Im sorry, even if it was dumb of you, im angry at the scammer.

But when you get scammed and the person who scammed you says theyre using your money for atrocious hateful acts, say making someones existence illegal, and you double down and say "well actually theyre right let me send more money, " you do not have any sympathy from me.

This made me laugh after reading the news, so thank you

My, admittedly very arcane, point was that its more of a social issue rather than a school curriculum issue, and so when you say ots because of the south and implying they werent ever attempted to be taught, it puts pressure on the wrong people. I actually think the OP likely happened

I would rather be unemployed than in a job I enjoy. So it really just comes down to can you afford to be out of work for that length of time?
