[Skype] Windows App vs. Desktop
Windows App version of Skype
pros
- sleek, compact and modern design
- the unneeded options bar and buttons at the top are removed
- smoother scrolling through chat
- "Skype name matched"
- no need to send requests and wait responses, chats are sent immediately to the user
cons
- fairly buggy
- unresponsive at times
- search/chat bars can lag or become unresponsive
- chat preview does not work half the time and shows the wrong chat at times
- status always shown as invisible if alt-tabbed
Desktop version of Skype
pros
- less buggy than app version
- accurate status updates (online/away at desktop)
- more compact chat box
cons
- no chat preview
- no smooth-scrolling
- annoying ads/status screen
which one do you guys prefer, i prefer desktop mode but been using app version because when its not buggy its nice.
tbh im actually very curious as to what the community thinks
