I'm on the latest version and I seem to still be able to chat on a voice/video call at the same time? Are you talking about chatting with people you're not on a call with?

I'm text chatting with someone. Then I initiate a Skype call with them. The text window disappears, the window goes blue, and there's no way to text and talk.

I clicked on everything on the screen, no text window. There is a balloon icon with lines in it, I thought "aha, the text chat window!" Sure enough, it opens the text chat window, and hangs up the call.

Arrgghhhh.

Microsoft has installed numerous Skype updates. I can't find any usability improvements. Things are just shuffled around, and/or broken.

I've been using Skype for 10+ years, and am about ready to abandon it for Slack.
