Missing Google+ as much as it's integration was awful it was a quick easy way to make niche communities that only communicated through youtube with pseudonyms and screennames who didn't want to out their name or family on Facebook or had the knowhow to make a forum.

Yahoo Mail isn't dead. Their service is working alright :)

But I celebrate Skype is dead because since it was bought by Microsoft from Google the software worked worse and worse since they change it to a "packed web application" with Skype 8. The best Skype is Skype 7 and it will always be. The only thing I loved from Skype 8 is the way you could unpack it, modify the interface to block many options and only allow what you want for the user, repack it and distribute it. I know because I was in charge of a big office in IT department years ago.

Now we have the utter garbage Teams, that at first was a regular Windows program, now is a more garbage Microsoft App. They are trying to make the worst possible application for companies.

Breathing air in the back while everybody else does their own thing… I guess?

I had made my account in 2003 and rode it through MSN Messenger, Pidgin and Skype.

There was a wealth of bittersweet memories in each and every chat window I had opened in there... and while I wasn't so blind as to ignore just how much of a ghost town it had become since I last used it fully (in 2015!), it still kinda stings.

This is just the latest act on a long war.

MindViz, VampireFreaks, Nextopia, AIM, MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, a multitude of forums and blogs... And now this.

They take so many irreplaceable memories from you and don't even care.

That said, the memories never go away. Remember, it wasn’t the application itself that was the memory, it was the people you met along the way. And, if enough people truly loved their time there, you’ll see it again. Maybe in a fan project, maybe in a new application, who knows?

This forum is a testament that the old ways of internet communication will never die. They’ll simply go home for a little bit.
