Don't worry, they ruined Skype too.

It used to be great and the P2P nature of it meant that file transfer speed, call quality & reliability was down to your network connection, something that you can control and fix should it be bad.

The clients also used to be beautiful, both on Windows and Mac. They replaced both with an Electron abomination.

Don't forget that if you accidentally merged your Microsoft account with your old Skype account you could lose all the contacts. I lost several gaming buddies that way when I didn't have alternate contact info.
