I know it's a touchy subject but...

Post by Simba Cub »

...let's be serious.

Is Adium dead?

The last beta was released in 2017-03-25. The XTras site is no longer working. Code is broken all over the site. The blog is ancient history. You could hoover up a tonne of dust here on the forums. And with so many protocols now no longer supported, is it time just to retire Adium? I only ever use FaceTime and Facebook Chat now that MSN and Yahoo! are gone.

So. Let's be honest. Is it a ghost town around here?

Code: Select all

*wipes a tear*
Gonna miss you, Adium. It was a very good 9 years of nearly constant use. Your customizability will be sorely missed...

Facebook and, slightly less, MSN killed the Adium Star...

I kept using Adium after the death of MSN until Facebook blocked it.

Perhaps supporting Telegram could revive it?

Found it. Not totally clear, but found it.

Any suggestions for a macOS XMPP client, preferably one that supports XEP-0313: Message Archive Management?
