Skype Classic Theme and better audio quality
We need the old style of skype and way better audio quality (like on Discord)! This can make this application to be again reused!

being able to change our ringtone
the default ringtone is very annoying and boring would be better if you could change it.

allow me to turn off spell check
Let me turn off spell check. It's an option on every app in the universe except Skype, and it's a person's own choice whether they want to look at red lines all day - whether they can spell or not. It's simply not acceptable to force things onto people.

Hope you like it! and more poeple will finally use skype as good old days :>

Please allow 4 people on a Skype call to use the Together Mode.
Many of us are playing games together online. I play Mahjong with two different groups 4 times a week. A week ago, somehow Skype allowed us to use the Together Mode when there were only 4 of us. It was GREAT to use the Together Mode in Skype while playing Mahjong online! But it seems like that was a fluke. Do you have a work around that would allow 4 of us to use the Together mode on Skype? Four is the max for players playing a game of Mahjong.

Pleeeeease, update monkey that appears after 7 clicks in chat
Could you, please, customize it with holiday smiles. For example, it would be great, if I could summon a Headless Turkey in chats throughout Thanksgiving, or an Elf on Christmas holidays etc)

Skyper interface is very confusing. Personal Skype (not business). I am constantly getting confused between calls, chats.
skype personal is very confusing. its very non-user friendly. I often get confused between chats and calls. the interface is extremely frustrating. I am relatively tech savvy and work in IT. this is not a PEBK (problem exists behind keyboard) issue.

Get Skype Classic (7) back!
Just, get skype classic (7) back, it would really bring users back. Skype 8 is literally just a phone app edited to work on computers

Take off the grey bar at the top of video calls!
It takes up a lot of space on my screen and there’s no setting for it.

Remove the gray bar above and below the call
the gray bar decreases the size of the shared screen, which makes viewing difficult
