A shame Adium has been abandoned. Certain interface elements (such as the aqua icons and certain aqua skins) are beautiful. And evoke nostalgia, as time goes by.

Adium is no longer under active development and has many problem. If you are looking to use xmpp or irc on your mac, using Monal and an irc bridge is the much better option.

I love this app, but I updated to OS X 10.13 and Adium (version 1.5.10.4) keeps "Unexpectedly Quitting". Open a chat window, then try to close that window and Adium will crash.

v1.5.10.3 is a *MAJOR* Security Update, required for ALL Adium users!

If you're using a previous version of Adium: *STOP.* Please read this article...

According to the Adium site, 1.5.10.1 requires 10.7.5 or above, not 10.6.8 as stated above.

Have been using 1.5.11b2 for months - it fixed the Yahoo login problem. What is with this one - regression, or roll-up of the 11b2 fixes?

Is Adium still in development? I've been a fan of the app for years, but Facebook and Gmail are changing, and I can't get either of them to play nice with Adium.

I’m wondering if the service providers are discontinuing their chat services or if they just aren’t allowing 3rd party apps anymore. Adium cannot connect to Gtalk, Apple’s AIM service, MSN… The only service Adium will connect to for me is Yahoo! IM, that’s it.

Ok, let's remember why Adium MUST live and evolve: -Yahoo Messenger (for Mac) is died, I just use it for file transfer with WC (Window Computer) Yahoo users; I'd like a better integration with it to stop to have to open it. - Facebook: I have more FB accounts, Adium allows me to chat on all, which is impossible through a single browser. - Skype is a tragic must have. The day Adium will be able to allow me to not have to open a Skype 6 (which I use just in desperate case from a disk image, while I've constantly open 2.8) I will even stop to open it! What about the many other chat programs? They are almost all abandoned, maybe the most important integration should be with QQ Yes, a lot of work still to do, to deserve the 6 stars, for now, I'm sorry, just 5!

I used to use adium exclusively years ago and I've also used the cross platform Pidgin from which Adium was created. Now i wanted to find out if there was any reason to continue using Adium at this point. messages/ichat seem to do the most popular services adium was pushed for, there is FaceTime for video/audio there is Skype for cross platform AV for mac to other operating systems to communicate. I also noticed adium isn't updated as much as it used to be so I was wondering if the project is dying off or has died off.

"Changed the default tab switching shortcuts for new users to Control-Tab/Control-Shift-Tab, to match Safari." Yes! I think this should be the default shortcut globally for all app and windows where the frontmost window contains some kind of tabs.
