Greetings Programs!!! Tonight marks the 8th Anniversary of me becoming a #Twitch affiliate! It's hard to believe that I have been doing @pidgin development on Twitch for 8 years already...
But enough about that, @pidgin 3 isn't going to write itself so we're continuing that tonight! Come on by!!

#Pidgin 2.91.0 (3.0EXP2) has been released (#PidginIM) https://pidgin.im/
So today I stumbled across a whiteboard implementation for #IRC I am actually seriously considering adding this in @pidgin 3.0 because we have a bunch of whiteboard code but don't currently have a way to test it.. Thoughts?
Greetings Programs!!

@bootblackcub What else would it talk to otherwise? Do any of the old networks still exist? I just checked in on Wikipedia, Snd I have to admit I was surprised by some of the newer tools still using XMPP!

Hoy hice mi primer test drive de mi máquina del #desafíoretrocómputo2025 y for un éxito.
Me fui a un bar, me conecté al wifi usando una herramienta con TUI (la conexión andaba pésimo pero por culpa del servicio, no de la máquina), chatee un rato por #IRC con #Pidgin, y terminé el turno de planets.nu sin problemas. Todo muy usable y sin crashes ni ralentización de ningún tipo.
I am using #xmpp since the time of windows xp and #pidgin. It is sad to see how the ecosystem moved. On Linux the only client available is gajim (there is no realistic way to install dino on Linux Mint). I appreciate the work people do to make those clients but.. it has so much problems. Now it constantly crashes so my xmpp communication is almost gone. Or lets say, my xmpp usage is tied to my smartphone with "conversations" as client.
Well we've gone and done it! Pidgin 3.0.0 Experimental 2 has been released!! You can find the full release announcement on our discourse!

So we had some issues in that Ibis 0.13.0 release which we've fixed in the 0.13.1 release!
Full release announcement is here! https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/ibis-0-13-1-has-been-released/
Hey everyone, we just released version 0.13.0 of Ibis our #IRCv3 library that we've built for the #IRC support in @pidgin 3!
The big feature in this release is that we're parsing formatting and making it available to users of the library so they can display formatted messages. See the screen shot for what that looks like in Pidgin 3 experimental 2!!
You can find the official release announcement here! https://discourse.imfreedom.org/t/ibis-0-13-0-has-been-released
So @pidgin 3.0 Experimental 2 is due out on Monday and we realized we could probably sneaking message formatting in for #IRCv3 in the last few days.
This still needs some work, but check out the Pidgin 2 vs 3 handling of message formatting...
I thought we fixed the italics stuff in Pidgin 2 awhile, but apparently not.
Anyways this is all spec complaint per https://modern.ircdocs.horse/formatting
If you have any questions, comments, etc feel free!
