Skype was a steaming pile for sure, but it had the ability to search for and message a distribution group and get an answer from whomever was available and I could pin it for future use. Now I have to know every name in a group and message them individually until I find someone to help or start a meeting to get everyone at once. It may just be how our Teams instance is configured, but I miss that feature. And who decided there should be a limit on how many people I can pin in Teams?
I mean, Skype now is just a turd. I guess it was given to interns as an exercise and as a way to force people to use other solution. But teams also suck, in its own particular way as you described

The real Skype was fine.
This Skype, I think, is just an ugly version of Teams.
