Wait, haven't they been ignoring/deprecating Skype for a couple years now, pushing towards Lync? Or is that only business?

You're so far behind.

They rebranded Lync to Skype for Business, which at least looked like regular Skype, trying to target younger people, but really sucked. Then they abandoned SfB and now we're on Teams, which imitates Slack and integrates SharePoint and all that shit, but works relatively well even if it's UX is pretty poor, there are bugs and it's cloud-only, contrary to the old SfB.
