Agreed. So sit down, compose your rants to the skype team as I have stated before and see where it gets you. If it gets you nowhere then there is always the door as my professors have said.

Then sit down, write your feedback to skype directly and not here. We have already heard it. If you you don't like it there is always zoom or the delete key. You tend to sound like a broken record

I don't put too much effort, and I don't consider them negative. I just compared 2 products, one that I like and another one that I don't like. That's all.
It wouldn't be helpful at all to contact

100% more effort and time? Really?
How much effort and time do you put in to composing the emails you do finding every negative thing you can? that's wasted energy and effort

Of course. But if we can't stop it it doesn't mean that we should pretend that it is better for us even if it is not.
The web interface is better for the sighted because is more flexible.

Yes you are right. We are a minority and we will always be disadvantaged because of this. This is what I am saying. But this doesn't mean that we shouldn't say this just because we can't change
