It’s over.  Skype is dead for webOS.  We reported on the likely eventual death of this

times. But this time, it’s for real.

It worked in early June of this year but not long after I got another message from Skype.

PSA Reminder: Skype for will likely die in 11 days.

But 12 days later it still worked.

Skype still works for users after the 1 July warning date. It will communicate to older clients but not new ones. Be advised.

— Alan Morford (@alan_morford)

But by working I only meant that legacy clients like ours and to include Android, Linux, and Apple clients that used their older protocol could still talk to each other but not with the newer clients.

Then in the middle of August, webOS forum user, mazzinia, noted .  I only noticed it in September…

Skype for appears dead. It connects then disconnects.

You can see some rather confusing entries in when trying to login.  It doesn’t amount to any good sadly.

If you have a Skype account already added to webOS then your log will look something like this but for those that don’t have a Skype account added to Synergy then you won’t be able to add it anymore.

Farewell, Skype for webOS.

#webOSforever

      Immediately following the major LG webOS firmware upgrade last week, our OLED65G2PSA is damaged. A white line appears top to bottom of screen in from the left hand side & the tv either fails to turn on, or shuts itself down shortly after. Has anyone else had this issue & if so, has any update on a solution. (I'm waiting for LG to get it sorted. Waiting ...)

      In fact, Spotify doesn't offer its service to LG webOS Smartwatch now. If you want to listen to Spotify songs on LG webOS Smartwatch, you'd need a
