Skype users with any sense of aesthetic justice are pretty much in unanimous agreement that the user interface for Skype 5 for Mac is a disaster. Between the useless coverflow way of scrolling through Contacts, the using of "recently talked to" instead of "online" as a hierarchy for listing Contacts and the irrational hogging of onscreen real estate in the most recent update, I've now began to shudder every time I see the message "There is a new version of Skype available." I am not alone in thinking that the ability to video chat with multiple people isn't worth the rest of Skype 5 for Mac's UI hassles. Software Engineer Lucas Matis just wrote a nearly 2,000 word missive on how the new Skype is too confusing for the casual user, and not complex enough for someone more advanced (And why can you no longer send links while in video chat mode?).
