Clarification:
I know he’s Big Brother’s lackey, but lately I’ve been really lacking communication, apparently I’ve fallen for this hook.
I haven’t been able to find any real-life communication for years now, but I’ve been increasingly reluctant to risk communicating while Big Brother is watching. There are good alternatives to Discord?


I was a fan of Miranda IM because that’s what I used for everything else (ICQ, MSN, XMPP, AIM, occasionally Skype though that plugin didn’t work that well). If I remember correctly, joining multiple servers was a bit more cumbersome than with other clients but having everything in one application was amazing.
Miranda NG is still actually around and being updated! It works pretty well for IRC, XMPP, Telegram, Discord, and a few others that I haven’t tried. Still Windows only tho
