The saddest part is that they copy and pasted Skype, which was a decent program at the time.
If you open pamixer and look at applications using audio it still shows up as Skype there. At least as of a few years ago.

Then again, what they did to Skype is a study case in how to destroy a platform users loved.
In the Microsoft world, before Teams they had Skype for Business, aka MS Lync with a slapped on Skype logo. Complete dumpsterfire.
The regular Skype was much better and also ran on Linux, but I've come to think Microsoft was only ever interested in buying the name.
Some of the audio stack is probably still from Skype.
