They removed the superfluous "detect/connect microphone" feature.

Update: Wow so many upvotes, someone should create a webrtc startup.

:-) ... We're a WebRTC startup - https://daily.co - completely free WebRTC calls in Chrome, up to 50 participants in a call, free dial-in numbers in 25+ countries. Meeting recording coming later this month. Edge and Safari support soon.

"Sign in with Google" sorry you lost me right there.

Also tried 'Just click' but no demo opened.

your superfluous is my essential.

one thing is to start small, the other one to remove for the sake of removing

The Windows 10 version removed microphone volume control. You would think that this is a core feature for Skype, but apparently not. To make matters even worse, Skype now not only automatically chooses the microphone volume but also changes the global Windows mic volume. Which means that I have to reconfigure the mic volume after every call I make with Skype, because otherwise the volume is all messed up in every other app. It really boggles my mind.
