I'm bummed that pretty much all the major messenger services have shut down (I think ICQ still works, but it's not the same as it used to be).  And I don't think Facebook Messenger, Snapchat, etc. are quite the same.

Years ago, Microsoft merged MSN Messenger into Skype, and then all my MSN Messenger contacts disappeared (they didn't get migrated to my Skype contact list).  I was bummed about that.
