I'm still convinced that Hipchat was bought by Slack and the Hipchat horribleness lately is the Slack migration plan. The new client is just terrible. I asked a coworker to zip up their HipChat.app so I could revert back to a state of somewhat stability. Hopefully someone who works at Atlassian is reading this and will read: We just need to chat. I miss whatever happened to the HipChat of 2013/2014.

(And for verification, yes, the hipchat download link redirects to this s3 bucket: https://www.hipchat.com/downloads/latest/mac https://www.hipchat.com/downloads/latest/mac).
- vacri 11y agoHipChat definitely is Atlassian's dropped ball,... and after they saw Slack's success, they leant down to pick it up ... and accidentally kicked it away again. It's surprising just how badly they've handled that project. A pity, because I liked Hipchat's ability to show more than three comments at once, sane display of notifications, and non-rapacious pricing schedule.
