It seems that almost every app installs an icon in the menubar. I like to remove most of them, but how to?
The suggested "hold command" and drag out of menubar doesn't work.
I am running an 2018 MacMini with Mojave 10.14.4
Mac mini, macOS 10.14
Don’t know about Skype. Yeah DropBox is forever. I have a ton of these icons and wound up getting a program called bar tender hat lets you control where they are. One set is seen as usual and another set can be hidden from view. Keeps ones you want quick access to handy but not littering the menu

Without knowing what application(s) it is hard to say. Some menu icons can be removed by holding Control and dragging down until you see an X. If you see a prohibition sign it cannot be removed that way. Some applications have the menu icon settings in their preference panel. And Mac OS icons are in their respective System Preference tabs.
Secondary click - Options - Uncheck "Keep in Dock"
Thank you, but when I click secondary nothing happens for any icon. Secondary click is correctly set up in mouse options.
@dwb Thanks. In this case, specifically Skype and DropBox. None of these 2 have any icon settings in their preferences.
Unfortunately both Skype and Dropbox don't offer an option to hide menubar icons.
Some users use Bartender to declutter the menubar.
