Give us option for alert sounds!
PLEASE give us options on message alert sounds! I have a mild hearing impairment and this new alert sound is WAY too subtle and quiet. I have not seen movement on this issue despite multiple complaints by users. This isn't just a "I want to play the x-files theme song" issue! It's an ADA issue.

Recent Chats: combine "Sort by Time" vs "Sort by Unread"
The New Skype desktop offers "Sort by Time" vs "Sort by Unread", but I miss so many messages, opportunities to talk to clients, because I'll have 'Sort by Time' open & new chat does not appear there.
Later, I look at 'Sort by Unread' & there are messages that don't show-up under the 'Sort by Time'.
Is this a glitch, or you mean it that way? We can only see one or the other?
Why can't I see ALL my text messages & requests all in one place?
PS: I'm on a Win7 PC with the Win7 version of NEW…

Adding A Task or sheet
We can add a feature of generating a task to take suggestions from other group members. For example, if we want some interview questions from team members then we can have one task or something like sheet where all can give their inputs rather then the message separately. To find questions in old messages is a little bit difficult, so if we have one particular task or sheet then we can get inputs of all from that task of a sheet.

Skype chats
fix copy and paste so Skype chats can be saved in Word w normal formatting. Used to be great, but latest Skype version, is a disaster, IMHO. The garble now, means to send anyone a transcript of a Skype chat takes a Long time, for business this is very inconvenient. Should be top priority fix.

Skype for Web - Bring back the support for most OS and browsers!
Recent Skype for Web update supports only Windows 10, macOS (and Chrome, Edge browsers only) So rest of the OS (e.g. Linux, Chrome OS) and browsers (e.g. Firefox, Opera) no longer has the access to Skype for Web! This is very disappointing from different aspects.
(Example-1) I need to access my Skype urgently on someone else's device but they're using the unsupported platform. So my work is undone. So lack of portability support will encourage me to switch to other messaging platforms.
(Example-2) Some people might feel complicated to use the Skype client for whatever reasons, and no access to…

Add a feature that can remove you from all the groups you are with blocked contacts.
I've been having a contact harrassing me constantly because after I removed it from my contacts and blocked it's still on a lot of groups that I've been creating. Please add a feature that allows me to get out of all the groups that I'm in with a certain contact.

Please restore Skype chat and admin commands.
Skype used to have a lot of great features. They had admin commands, they had discussion topics in addition to chat banners. They removed so many things that actually worked and we're left with a shell of a program. I don't understand. I can't /get or /set anything.
I'm trying to set alarms in our chat. While it used to be doable, now it's just impossible.
