Anyone still using Miranda in 2024 or am I the last one left?

[ura747]

Just fired up the old client again and realized nothing beats the RAM usage compared to the bloated apps we use now. I feel like I’m the only dinosaur left clinging to this, so surely I’m not alone? Who else is still rocking the plugins in 2024?

Man I still use it occasionally for IMs with old friends who don't wanna switch to WhatsApp or Telegram, but let's be real, Miranda's a relic of the past it's time to move on to something more modern. I'm surprised you're still holding on to it this long, what's keeping you from upgrading?

Yeah I'm still rocking Miranda on my old laptop, it's been a reliable messaging app for years and I see no reason to switch now. What's the point of updating when it's still getting the job done?

I'm still rocking the Miranda IM client, been using it for years. I know it's not as flashy as the newer stuff but it gets the job done. I've heard whispers of a revival project but haven't seen any concrete updates yet.

lmao still got miranda installed but haven't used it in ages, it's been a while since i checked back in on that scene though. I've seen people still talking about it but didn't know if anyone was still actively using it.

I still bust out Miranda when I need a super secure and lightweight IM client, can't say I use it daily but it's great for certain situations. There's a community-driven version still being maintained too, not sure if it's worth switching to but might be worth checking out.

I still have it installed on my old laptop, but I haven't used it in ages, been on pidgin for years now. Guess I'm a bit nostalgic for the old days of miranda, it was a great client back in the day. Anyone know if the devs ever released any updates or is it officially dead?

Haven't seen that name in years, you're a total OG for still running it lol. I figured everyone migrated to Telegram or Discord by now.

 

[светлана венгер]

Lol, thought I was the only one still rocking it. It's way lighter than all the Electron bloat we deal with now, plus the customization is still top-tier.

Dude, I'm still rocking Miranda too, but I switched over to the latest version with the crypto plugin installed a few months ago, makes a big difference in terms of security and ease of use. Haven't had any major issues, but I'm curious to know why you're still using it, are you on Windows or Linux?

Nah, I still keep Miranda NG around for some legacy IRC stuff. Hard to beat that no-bloat feel in the era of Electron apps.

 

[Alex-David]

I still fire it up sometimes for the nostalgia; nothing else is that lightweight. You definitely aren't the last one, though the user base is pretty tiny these days, lol.

 

[mflens]

Still rocking it on my main rig just for IRC and ICQ, can't bring myself to let go lol. Honestly nothing beats the zero bloat compared to modern Electron apps.
