+## The Go Skype bridge has been removed from the playbook
+
+The [go-skype-bridge](./docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-go-skype-bridge.md) has been removed from the playbook, as Skype has been discontinued since the May 2025.
+
+The playbook will let you know if you're using any `matrix_go_skype_bridge_*` variables. You'll need to remove them from `vars.yml` and potentially [uninstall the bridge manually](./docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-go-skype-bridge.md#uninstalling-the-bridge-manually).

+# Setting up Go Skype Bridge bridging (optional, removed)
 
-The playbook can install and configure [go-skype-bridge](https://github.com/kelaresg/go-skype-bridge) for you, for bridging to [Skype](https://www.skype.com/). This bridge was created based on [mautrix-whatsapp](https://github.com/mautrix/whatsapp) and can be configured in a similar way to it.
+🪦 The playbook used to be able to install and configure [go-skype-bridge](https://github.com/kelaresg/go-skype-bridge), but no longer includes this component, as Skype has been discontinued since May 2025.
 
-See the project's [documentation](https://github.com/kelaresg/go-skype-bridge/blob/master/README.md) to learn what it does and why it might be useful to you.
+## Uninstalling the bridge manually
 
-## Prerequisite (optional)
+If you still have the Go Skype bridge installed on your Matrix server, the playbook can no longer help you uninstall it and you will need to do it manually. To uninstall manually, run these commands on the server:
 
-### Enable Shared Secret Auth
-
-If you want to set up [Double Puppeting](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/general/double-puppeting.html) (hint: you most likely do) for this bridge automatically, you need to have enabled [Shared Secret Auth](configuring-playbook-shared-secret-auth.md) for this playbook.
-
-See [this section](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#set-up-double-puppeting-optional) on the [common guide for configuring mautrix bridges](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md) for details about setting up Double Puppeting.
-
-**Note**: double puppeting with the Shared Secret Auth works at the time of writing, but is deprecated and will stop working in the future.
-
-## Adjusting the playbook configuration
-
-To enable the bridge, add the following configuration to your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml` file:
-
-```yaml
-matrix_go_skype_bridge_enabled: true
-```
-
-### Extending the configuration
-
-There are some additional things you may wish to configure about the bridge.
-
-See [this section](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#extending-the-configuration) on the [common guide for configuring mautrix bridges](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md) for details about variables that you can customize and the bridge's default configuration, including [bridge permissions](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#configure-bridge-permissions-optional), [encryption support](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#enable-encryption-optional), [relay mode](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#enable-relay-mode-optional), [bot's username](configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#set-the-bots-username-optional), etc.
-
-**Note**: when following the guide to configure the bridge, make sure to replace `_mautrix_SERVICENAME_` in the variable names with `_go_skype_bridge_`.
-
-## Installing
-
-After configuring the playbook, run it with [playbook tags](playbook-tags.md) as below:
-
-<!-- NOTE: let this conservative command run (instead of install-all) to make it clear that failure of the command means something is clearly broken. -->
 ```sh
-ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all,start
-```
-
-The shortcut commands with the [`just` program](just.md) are also available: `just install-all` or `just setup-all`
-
-`just install-all` is useful for maintaining your setup quickly ([2x-5x faster](../CHANGELOG.md#2x-5x-performance-improvements-in-playbook-runtime) than `just setup-all`) when its components remain unchanged. If you adjust your `vars.yml` to remove other components, you'd need to run `just setup-all`, or these components will still remain installed. Note these shortcuts run the `ensure-matrix-users-created` tag too.
-
-## Usage
-
-To use the bridge, you need to start a chat with `@skypebridgebot:example.com` (where `example.com` is your base domain, not the `matrix.` domain).
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-As with all other services, you can find the logs in [systemd-journald](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-journald.service.html) by logging in to the server with SSH and running `journalctl -fu matrix-go-skype-bridge`.
-
-### Increase logging verbosity
+systemctl disable --now matrix-go-skype-bridge.service
 
-The default logging level for this component is `warn`. If you want to increase the verbosity, add the following configuration to your `vars.yml` file and re-run the playbook:
+rm -rf /matrix/go-skype-bridge
 
-```yaml
-# Valid values: fatal, error, warn, info, debug
-matrix_go_skype_bridge_log_level: 'info'
+/matrix/postgres/bin/cli-non-interactive 'DROP DATABASE matrix_go_skype_bridge;'
 ```
