A: Google & Facebook shut down their XMPP gateways to force you into their apps. All the sudden you use Pidgin to communicate with people on google & facebook. At least that was my experience. I used to use Pidgin with OTR[0] for e2e encrypted chat over google & facebook. It was pretty fantastic, messages were inaccessible to facebook and google even with a court order so I didn't need to trust them. Also used... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
Why so pesimisstic. In a sane world (and probably in the world where they want to say "just use WhatsApp, we're better!") they'll say "This user is using an unencrypted app. [Paragraph about how all your nudes and contents of bank account will be stolen]. Are you sure you want to send them a message?".

Jabber is now called XMPP. XMPP is a technology, actually used by many other services such as Facebook chat. (or at least it has been at one point, don't know what the current status is.) XMPP continues to also work with Adium, a multi-protocol chat app that's completely customizable (visuals + sounds). Source: about 2 years ago
I really miss Adium (https://adium.im) which was based on Pidgin's libpurple. Adium had such a great user experience. It was built with native widgets and also incorporated chat themes that were implemented using WebKit's rendering (https://www.adiumxtras.com/index.php?a=search&cat_id=5&sort=downloads). It was fast and memory friendly given that it was a native app and the themes were just small templates offering... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
> there was also some Duck app for macOS? You are thinking of Adium (https://adium.im). I believe it was a port of pidgin/libpurple to cocoa/aqua (or whatever the macOS gui framework was back then). - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
