Pidgin 3.0 Experimental 1 Has been released!

We are ecstatic to announce that we have released the first experimental version of Pidgin 3.0!!! This is a pre alpha release with an official version number of 2.90.0. We will continue releasing in this fashion until we are ready for 3.0.0 which will be the release we consider ready for end users. The release can be found on SourceForge. Update: Well it wouldn’t be the first release in a long time without a nearly immediate update… It turns out that we missed some bugs that affected new user...

@pidgin Unfortunately, just the name of this software triggers memories of my time as an Oracle employee.
@mgrinder I assure you it triggers many memories of Oracle employees who would join our IRC channel for support and insist that we help them when we told them they had to talk to their own help desk and that we couldn't do anything for them.... 😅
