After MINIMAL configuration (and I seriously cannot stress this part enough!) it has worked perfectly since then. UPDATED 29JUN14: After everyone here recommended Pidgin I went ahead and installed it over the next weekend. Now it's not only unusable, it's completely unstable. It connected to all of the services, and it did what it was supposed to.
Is a simple stand-alone IM client application too much to ask for? Trillian USED TO BE fantastic about ten years ago. What happened to the programmers that knew how to do just the one thing you wanted, and do that one thing well? I'm tired of ten-kitchen-sink applications that are so crammed full of useless crap that they can't even manage to do the basic things that you installed it for in the first place. I don't want it to make internet phone calls, or check my email, or post crap to a social network, or do file transfers in the background, or play movies or MP3 files, or run any banner / scroller crap inside my IM window with the latest news headlines or the postings to their corporate blog. Does anyone have any recommendations for a GOOD instant messaging client that can connect to all of the (remaining) IM services and doesn't try to shoehorn ten kitchen sinks into your tooltray?Īll I want is something that does IM. So Trillian just gacked again, and it's pretty much the final straw.
