Well, the one before then! Blimey, I can barely remember what I had for breakfast, let alone anything a decade or more ago!

What I don't like is that as far as I can tell, a _few_ users may say, "wouldn't it be nice if...", and MS not only adds the feature, but makes it the default for _everybody_ .

Just this morning cancelled the installation of the new version (the 10th time)...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

repeat the following MAXINT times:
microsoft always knows what's best for us.
- and no cheating, mantra's only work if done manually without the use of any technology. (it's just too bad if you're 64 bit.)
Signature ready for installation. Please Reboot now.

If you find yourself "upgraded" to this crappy new Skype, go to the Skype download page[^], and click the little down-arrow on the right of the blue download button. The bottom option there is "Get classic Skype". Download that, uninstall your current version, and install this - back to normal!

just wondering if that we can do on mobile devices like android specifically?

So, why does everyone hate the new one so much (aside from the aforementioned fixed font size)? I looked at some screenshots, and it seems like they just made it look like Slack, HipChat, or (insert name of other modern chat client here)...
Is this an "old man yells at cloud" situation?

According to the release notes that go along with every new iteration of Windows 10 (1507, 1511, 1607, 1703 and now 1709) it's pretty clear they've been spending a lot of time trying to make sure Windows remains high-DPI friendly, can work with different monitors that each have their own DPI settings, etc.
So I find it somewhat amusing to know that one of their most visible apps won't let you change basic configuration details like font size...

fonts are newfangled technology, they must be proven before included.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Clearly you have been around the block my friend. I haven't touched Corel anything since the 90s... and yet I still remember the pain... oh the pain... curse you Corel Draw!
On a side note, I just checked. That thing is still selling...

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.
