Trillian, Adium, Pigdin for 2020? Lol. What a mess the internet has become.

  Those were all free too if I remember correctly?

    Yes they were, except I think Trillian had a pro version.

      I remember those! It was free forever then later on that Trillian Pro came around. Adium was my favorite during that time.

  Thing is that situation is much worse because there are no official APIs for most of the networks (most popular ones) this project aims to support - and it means constant uphill battle eventually doomed to fail. In addition to that if the project will ever become something more than just a gimmick then I think that entities like FB, Apple will use active countermeasures: technical and legal to discourage authors.
