Concerns existed about Microsoft shutting down Skype, but instead, the company pivoted towards Teams, which has become more successful in the enterprise sector. Analysts note that Skype, seen as a legacy product, received little investment and has struggled in the face of competition from platforms like Zoom. Microsoft has effectively replaced Skype with Teams, which is perceived as a superior alternative. As a result, it's expected that Skype won't be missed by users who have transitioned to other options.
Skype has been on death's bed for some time now. Microsoft tried to make it a money maker by having a professional version, but that went nowhere, given the dominance of Zoom.
Microsoft has focused on Teams as a replacement; it's a better product than Skype and has gained significant traction in the enterprise - and even among consumers.
Skype was really just a legacy product with no real investment lately; I don't think it will be missed by most users who probably already have moved on to other products anyway.
